Turning the tide with Peter Auret on The K Jazz Show

This Sunday, The K Jazz Show returns with front-row flair and rhythm-rich coverage of the Standard Bank Joy of Jazz Festival.

Now, when it comes to world-class groove, finesse on the kit, and a keen ear behind the studio desk, our next guest wears many hats — all stylishly tilted towards excellence.

Joining us for the very first time on Kofifi FM 97.2 is a man who keeps time like it’s a fine wine — matured, bold, and full of notes.

He’s not just a drummer; he’s a rhythm sculptor, a sonic craftsman, and a creative force who’s been shaping the sound of South African jazz for over a decade.

Whether he’s leading his acclaimed Peter Auret Trio, laying down tracks for legends in his Sumo Sound Recording studio, or collaborating with jazz giants both local and global — one thing’s for sure: when Peter Auret is involved, the music doesn’t just play… it speaks.
