Last but not least – DURBAN it’s your turn
Getting in just before the rest of us descend on KZN for sun, fun and year-end madness, Levi’s turns it’s attention to Deben and blesses them with a stunning line-up. By the way – how hot is Arno in this pic?
Levi’sý Vintage Sunday’s comes marching into Durban for the month of November, turning Sunday nights at Society into a destination of choice, as the music massive like their tunes to be to…
tally local. And they won’t be disappointed with no less than ten of the country’s top acts taking the stage for week after week of rocking madness. Its fast, it’s furious it’s totally free. So make sure that in November, you save some energy for the last few hours of every weekend. It will be well worth it.
It’s been an amazing ride. Levi’sý Vintage Sunday’s has travelled the country since April, spreading the local music word and getting the crowds down to support South African talent with a series of gigs that have blown perceptions away, hair back and people off their feet. In November, Levi’sý Vintage Sunday’s coasts down to Durban for this year’s final month of musical madness. So if you’re in the area, make sure you catch the last chance to see some of our best acts for free. If you don’t manage to, then know that you’ve missed out. Up first on the 5th are the inimitable duo of Arno Carsten and Albert Frost. This meeting of musical giants with a whole lot of soul is bound to entrance as the boys take you through their personal take on blues-infused rock. It’ll be unique. Showing support on the night is Baz Corden, an eclectic artist whose optimistic musical charm is quite simply infectious. Farryl Purkiss oozes up to the mic on the 12th, delivering an unusual mix of vibrant vibes set against lush minimal drums, bass and dreamy guitar solos. He’ll take you to that place you want to be. Love Jones start the evening off with their energetic mix of pop-laced, vocal-driven power. The 19th sees a true pioneer taking to the stage. It’s Steve Newman’s turn to entertain with his carefully constructed melodies and haunting delivery. He’s got a history to share. Come feel it. In support are Guy Buttery with his unconventional guitar and percussive techniques, and Nib van der Spuy whose intricate soul-searching arrangements find their way into every heart that hears him. Closing it all off on the 26th are Mzansi’s favourite fun-funksters. It’s Tumi and The Volume, and this crew is going to lay down their smooth mix of root styles, and lay them down large. It’s going to get off the hook. Opening for them are The Arrows, a trio who balance jazz, hip-hop and afro-pop and turn it all into an originally quirky sound.
