Guitarist/vocalist Siphamandla Fete (AKA Spara) and Siyabonga Radu (AKA Feido) have won the hearts and minds of music lovers from all over South Africa and have coined the term “Sis Today” which they have punted as “today’s sound mixed with all influences". Influenced by music greats including Madala Kunene, Brenda Fassie, Jabu Khanyile, Frank Ocean and Lauryn Hill, Gqeberha-based two-man singing sensation Umle are ready to keep audiences bopping their heads and tapping their feet in a unique musical experience.

Perfectly blending sound and melody seasoned with a pinch of soul and spiced-up with boom bap, hip hop and mbaqanga, Umle serves a fluid combination of isiXhosa and English. Using elements of comedy in their act, Umle also reports on social issues the band has witnessed around them while bringing a message of hope to their lively performances.

The pair had also worked with different producers and recorded their project in three different studios, the Colormineboys studios in Zwide, Audionamics studio in KwaDwesi as well as ECAVC in East London. Producers on this production include Nduduzo Makhathini, Lwazi Mahashe and Cush Solomon. The project also featured some local artists from KwaDwesi including Msaki and Samthing Soweto.
