After a sold-out run last year, Texx and The City’s After Dark series is back at the Two Oceans Aquarium for 4 more shows this year. The first of which paired Shadowclub with Manu Grace against the simultaneously calming and riveting backdrop of the I&J Predator Exhibit.
Here’s a look at the night:
I recently spent a wintry hour outside among the rusting trees with BRYNN to take some press shots. Here are a few of my favourites from the shoot.
A beautiful evening in a beautiful venue: Gary Thomas launched his new musical project in Long Street’s old slave church last Thursday to a small but appreciative crowd. As musically intricate and interesting as ever, I was surprised to learn he’s also funny, and greatly enjoyed the relaxed intimate vibe and beautiful sounds.
Here are some shots from the show.
Relocating to Berlin was undoubtedly a great and very necessary decision for Medicine Boy. While spreading their wings abroad sadly means that they don’t play locally much anymore it also makes their visits back home that much more special; I really enjoyed their recent show at Mercury which featured frequent collaborators Werner von Waltsleben and Hezron Chetty as well as a special appearance from Simon Ratcliffe and an arresting and emotionally intense opening set from Clayton Human.
The Sleepers, one of my long-time favourites, performed a very special show at Mercury recently to celebrate the decade-long anniversary of A Signal Path.
It was a nostalgic and emotional night, so much so that I struggled a bit to express my feelings in words but tried nevertheless: pictures and musings after the jump.
