Saul City, a husband and wife duo who have recently celebrated 12 years of their musical journey, are a duo who once referred to themselves as genreless. Before coming to Cape Town hometown of singer/songwriter Lauren, the pair resided in Italy, hometown of guitarist/producer Michele for 9 years. The couple first started releasing music in 2014 where they experimented with cinematic and gripping sounds and slowly delved into various genres of music. Now in Cape Town and many singles later, the pair have made appearances on national TV, earned a number one spot on Chapter One Radio and are buskers at the Waterfront. The pair show no signs of stopping as they have now found their niche musically putting their twist on R&B and Nu Soul sounds. This acoustic duo have their  eyes focused on growth and straying every once in a while as they continue experimenting with new sounds.

Since 2015, Jasmine Minter has shared the stage with legends such as Prime Circle, Gavin Edwards, Majozi, Brynn’s frontman Jules Terea and many more. She has performed on stages like the Kirstenbosch Summer Concert Stage, the Baxter theatre and Café Roux, and been part of festivals such as the Cape Town Folk n Acoustic Music Festival and the Cape Town International Jazz Festival. But now it’s 2020! It’s a new year, and she is no longer Jasmine Minter. This year she has teamed up with 222 Artist Agency, and now she is Lemon Zest. Lemon Zest is an alt-pop artist from Cape Town, South Africa.
