PMB Grammy winner debuts song about unrest
Better Than This, a song composed by two-time Grammy winner Lucas Bok, was released along with its music video at Maritzburg Golf Club last Friday.
In September, Bok spoke to Capital Newspapers and said the idea of the song was born when there was a need to restore hope and help businesses rebuild following the unrest in July.
The #BetterThanThis campaign is supported by Community Chest, Cardiologist Dr. Sanjay Maharaj, Spar, Pietermaritzburg Tourism and Caltex Bird’s Sanctuary Garage.
#BetterThanThis aims to contribute to the fulfilment of the Community Chest’s vision of “enhanced communities and restored hope”. Critical to community building and restoring hope is the “principle of the people; by the people; for the people’”.
