Who is Triveno?

Triveno is a singer/songwriter from Paarl. He writes and sings about life, love and loss. He learned to play guitar at his local church at the age of 13. He soon started writing his own songs and performed at events in and around the Paarl area.

His first professional recording was in 2012 at Franschhoek Recording Studios with Uys Visser and Helmut Meijer. In 2014 he released his first 10 track album – Brighter Day. He has released a number of singles and also a 6 track EP with his band Southern Lights between 2016 – 2019.

In 2017 his wife Alecia, whom he was married to for 11years, lost her battle against cancer. She was also a founding member of the band Southern Lights. It was a difficult time for Triveno and their daughter Gabriella who was only 6 years old at that time. This was a time of deep reflection and soul searching for him and he also thought of giving up on his music career.
