Title: Don’t Die in the Bundu
Condition: New
Description: A fresh chapter takes soft, sure shape for Cape Town-based singer-songwriter Wren Hinds on his 2023 album. Released through Bella Union, ‘Don’t Die in the Bundu’ contains a gleaming set of gently dappled and poetic songs about fatherhood and fortitude, the album roots its restrained strength in an innate understanding of what matters most to us. Recorded at a timber cabin in the South Peninsula mountainside, about 40km outside of Cape Town, ‘Don’t Die in the Bundu’ is at once a natural evolution from his earlier work., a fresh start and a statement of commitment, embedded in its title. Drawn from ‘a few personal experiences,’ says Wren, the inspiration for the title helps pinpoint its purpose. ‘It was inspired by a very old survival book distributed in South Africa and Zimbabwe. I had a few title options I was playing with, and around July 2022 a friend and I were held up at gunpoint in Cape Town. Fortunately we weren’t harmed or anything, but the whole ordeal helped me to settle on the title’.
