About

Twenty One Children are a punk trio from Soweto, Johannesburg, made up of vocalist Abdula Skink, guitarist Thulasizwe 'Thula' Nkosi and drummer Biko. Formed in February 2023, they fuse the speed of US skate punk with rhythmic influences from Soweto - raw guitars, sharp humour and songs that constantly walk the edge. Known for their DIY ethos, they build skate parks, run benefit shows, and released their debut mini-album *After the Storm* on Slovenly Recordings in December 2025.
