Join Bands Not Gangs

Bio

Join Bands, Not Gangs is a registered non-profit from Cape Town, South Africa, that uses music as a means to fight gangsterism in at-risk neighbourhoods.

Founded in 2018 by Berklee College of Music graduate Karien de Waal, the organization aims to prove our hypothesis - that if a small percentage of the Youth in a neighbourhood can become actively involved in constructive activities like music, we can help reduce gangsterism and therefore reduce crime.

We also hope to find and develop young talent across the Western Province in South Africa and release a new sound for South Africa.

We were featured on Expresso this past week, announcing a new songwriting competition!! We aim to uplift the Youth of South Africa!!!
