Johannes Basson was born the son of a preacher man, shares his birthday with Janice Joplin and grew up in a small country town in South Africa ... perfect credentials for a musician. He has been writing and playing his own material since he was fourteen, stubbornly refusing to do anything but create a career in music. Basson is an unique artist and an enigmatic muso since birth. His music doesn't easily fall into any category, but he likes to call it indie folk rock. A near fatal road accident made him sit still long enough to write some of his best material ... which evolved into "Stories From Nowhere." Basson is a mystic from the Karoo and he has been inspired to share with you his experience of life, love, joy and insight.
