About Bokani Dyer
Bokani Dyer is an award-winning singer, pianist, composer, and producer from South Africa. His approach to jazz contains elements of electronic, R&B, Afro-Latin, and classical. He is one of his country's most prodigious keyboard talents. Dyer's playing style is at once inventive, elegant, and as affirmative as it is inquisitive. After studying with Jason Moran in New York, he released his debut, Mirrors, in 2010. The following year, after winning the Standard Bank Young Artist Award for Jazz, he issued the star-studded Emancipate the Story. Oscillations followed in 2013. His third album, 2015's World Music, was nominated for Best Jazz Album at the South African Music Awards. 2019's trio offering, Neo Native, won it. 2020's Kelenosi was recorded completely solo during the pandemic in 2020. Radio Sechaba appeared in May 2023 on Brownswood.
