The 25 year old female singer who was born in a small town in South Africa had a passion and love for music from an early age. In 2000 she went to study music at Eastside College SA where she majored in vocal training. From that point it had been a continuous journey in the music industry. Kgomotso has played with one of South Africa’s best Afro jazz bands.

She also performed with Khethi who is an Afro centric jazz musician where they toured a lot of places with the band in and around South Africa. In 2010 Kgomotso was approached by a band named Tonic Stations who were invited to perform and entertain soccer lovers at the Hilton Colombo.
