Journeying to Jazz with Hilton Schilder on The K Jazz Show

Loading player...
We are joined by none other than the legendary Hilton Schilder — a man whose music is as layered and soulful as the city he hails from.

Born into rhythm, raised by Goema, and armed with a playful spirit including 16 instruments (yes, sixteen!), Hilton is Cape Town’s very own sonic alchemist.

From Punk to Classical, Rock to Cape Jazz, his fingerprints are all over the South African music landscape. And now, as he prepares to release his 46th — project, he’s still full of fresh stories, sounds, and surprises.

A true “mind freedom fighter” if ever there was one.
