Live Sound Engineer
Hailing from the small city that's actually just a big town, Gqeberha, Savannah started her career as a stage tech in various theatres across GQ. She then pursued a Technical Theatre Degree from Stellenbosch University ultimately favouring Sound Engineering. Working from the ground up, she started in the Live Music scene in 2021 in small venues across Cape Town.
She's worked with many musicians and bands from all walks of life such as Kujenga, Nomadic Orchestra, Atlantic South, Doomtrigger, The Fallen Prophets and even international acts such as Blue Mar, Fuzigish, Fokofpolisiekar and Zolani Mahola.
Her goal is to break the stigma around Live Sound Engineering particularly around female representation in the scene in South Africa and internationally.
