REBIRTH Graphic Novel: Jan van Riebeeck was a vampire
2013-03-05 "But what interests me more than this – and I hope that in some way we have explored this a bit in the book – is how the colonial trauma creates a kind of force field, a blight maybe you could call it, that affects both colonised and coloniser for centuries afterwards."

Sanlam Sing 'it finalist interview: Adam Jerrett
2013-02-07 “I can hear the penny drop to the beat when your heart stops” refers to the awesome silence that comes over a crowd right before something intense happens on stage, and the chorus is all about getting the crowd to sing it back to you; to live in the moment; to feel invincible with you."
Sanlam Sing 'it finalist interview: Nicki Sutherland

Sanlam Sing 'it finalis-onderhoud: Jo Folscher
2013-02-06 "Dit wat mense so belangrik ag, is dikwels uiteindelik niks meer as wolke wat voor die son verdwyn nie. Dit gaan ook vir my oor mense wat hulself beter as ander ag, maar so baie keer in ‘n vorm van sosiale waansin lewe."
Sanlam Sing 'it finalist interview: Matt Rose
2013-02-06 "Being in love, or experiencing "that kiss", can turn our worlds upside down. The basic message is that it doesn't matter where a kiss takes place, if it’s meaningful everything else falls away."
