Star credits his parents for his love of music.
Firefighter by the day, musician by night has been the life Tumello Nonyane leads for over a decade.
“The world of music has been a part of me way before I could become a firefighter. I grew up in a spiritual family where we held prayer nights every night and we would sing before we pray… or at a funeral or any outing where we gathered as a family. While he had a deep desire for singing, Nonyane’s dream was soon crushed when his primary school choir teacher told him he couldn't sing, but that didn’t deter him from what he loves to do the most.
Born and bred in Tembisa on the East Rand, the 37-year-old explains he had a tough upbringing which he believes moulded him into the person he is today – kind and caring.“I was a very proactive child, I used to play cricket and soccer. I used sport as an outlet because I never really had friends because of my situation at home. I would often hide from kids in my neighbourhood because of not having the things they had. You would say I was scared of being teased for not being able to fit in.
