It initially started by a very young boy, Derek Hendriks as a Disco set-up! After hearing other musicians performing live and attaining musicianship, Derek along with the late Charles Botes who was a mentor for the band, Francois Piedt, my current Keyboardplayer & Rodney Goliath, my current drummer decided to transform the group during 2008 to become a Live musical Act and started a band called: “Slam Jam Music factory” in short: Slam Jam!
