Formative Years and Triumphs

In 2006, the South African music scene was graced with the formation of the "Broers" - a trio that epitomized harmonious singing and exhilarating rhythms. Comprising of the Snyman brothers - Christo, Cobus, and Stephan, the band's name, which translates to 'Brothers' in Afrikaans, was a perfect representation of their bond, both familial and musical.

Their talents were not just limited to producing entrancing music; they also ventured into the publishing realm with their own company, SMP (Snyman-musiekproduksies). Their 2008 hit, "Huistoe," resonated with many, earning them the title of "Best Song of the Year" at the Tempo Awards, an accolade presented by the famed Afrikaans magazine, Huisgenoot.

The Early Duo: Christo en Cobus

Before the inception of Broers, Christo and Cobus had already embarked on their musical journey as a duo, aptly named "Christo en Cobus." Their collaborative venture began in 1992 and continued till 2007, producing melodies that would lay the foundation for the later emergence of Broers. This collaboration culminated in four studio albums, including a notable gospel album that showcased their versatility.

Stephan's Solo Brilliance: Nic Stevens

The youngest of the trio, Stephan Snyman, embarked on a solo career under the pseudonym Nic Stevens. As a multi-instrumentalist, he brought life to his songs, skillfully playing the piano, guitar, and trumpet. Among his achievements is a unique album dedicated to covering songs by the iconic Bryan Adams. However, his heart would eventually find its way back to collaborating with his brothers, cementing the legacy of Broers.

A Lifetime of Music

From their early days, the passion for music was evident in the Snyman brothers. They began crafting melodies as young children, singing in choirs from their primary school years. Their dedication was further enhanced by formal training in various instruments, including the piano, trumpet, guitar, and double bass. For them, music was not just a hobby, it was a calling - a profession they chose wholeheartedly.

National Pride and Performances

One of the defining moments in their illustrious career was the honor of performing the national anthem during the International Rugby Board’s 3-nation matches between rugby giants - New Zealand, Australia, and South Africa. Their powerful rendition echoed in the hearts of countless South Africans.

Moreover, Christo's skills extend beyond singing, as he's also a seasoned master of ceremonies. The brothers, known for their magnetic performances, are available for shows across the nation.

In the rich tapestry of South African music, the Broers' harmonious threads will forever remain interwoven, leaving behind an unmatched legacy of rhythm, melody, and soul.
