Singer/Songwriter, Daylin Sass (20) born and raised and currently residing in Hanover Park, took his first few steps into the Music Industry by gaining experience in the New Apostolic Church. Singing in the church choirs and having a music theory background, Daylin officially started gaining more experience in the industry by furthering his music knowledge at Wynberg High School where he matriculated and achieved Top Theory and Music Practical learner for 5 years consecutively. In high school Daylin was introduced to showbiz and participated in all school shows for those 5 years of his schooling at Wynberg and also participated in the Focus School’s Jazz Festival.

This is where everybody noticed Daylin’s talent for the very first time when he performed “Rather Go Blind – Vusi Nova” at the Free Concert with The All Star Band.
This gave way to Daylin creating his own sound and broaden his versatility with genres like neo soul, jazz, dance pop, club jazz and gospel.
