Ben Dey and The Concrete Lions (BDCL) are an Afro/Indie
pop-rock band from Cape Town. Wanting to create music that showcases this
powerful force among African people, the band fused Indie folk with some
locally inspired Afro-pop beats to create their unique blend. Their philosophy
is that music speaks a universal language and can be used to uplift and inspire
communities the world over. Founded in 2015, BDCL is the result of an unlikely
friendship between self-taught musicians Ben and Ongama and the ability of
music to bring people together. Both from different walks of life, collectively
they are the driving force behind the band and despite some line-up changes
over the years, the music has remained much the same. Made up of Ben Dey (lead
singer), Ongama Mona (lead guitar, backing vocals), Alex Birns (percussion) and
Dillon Birns (bass), the foursome shares the same ambition, ideology and
commitment which has been crucial from the get go. Have a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBPM_ry78pg

Kurt Darren is one of South Africa’s biggest selling artists
and is the winner of 7 SAMA awards. As well as featuring on television in
movies, Kurt is well known for a string of major hits over the last two
decades. Kurt is a world class entertainer with an incredible voice and is a
natural born entertainer. His last indoor show at cafe Roux was one of the most
memorable intimate performances we have staged. His backing band on the night
is Me and Mr Brown who have established themselves over the last few years as
one of the country’s best party bands. “Kaptein” is one of the most popular
songs in SA music history. Have a listen:

With a history steeped in music and a lifetime spent gaining
insight and wisdom the world over, Mantis brings something truly generous to
his performances – a sense of common humanity and togetherness. The brotherhood
between band members and the sincere heart expressed through their music is
tangible. It is undeniable that their vision is to create a conscious shift
through their music and to hold a space within which meaningful shared
experiences can take place. For those lucky enough to share in it, JMB leads
those who share in their music on an unforgettable journey . While the band is
still based in Europe, his wanderlust has inevitably led Mantis back home to
South Africa where he intends to pick up where he once left off many moons ago.

There are few acclaimed musicians, singers, songwriters,
producers and astute business minds that have the luxury of labelling
themselves ‘late developers’ when, in reality, they’ve already achieved more
than most will in an entire band’s collective lifetime. In the case of Cape
Town born-and-raised James Stewart, he not only fits the description to a T, he
most likely helped trademark the mould. That’s just how considered the
Franschhoek-based, Emmy-nominated, multi SAMA award winning, chart topping
creative patently is. Labelling himself humbly and austerely a ‘musician’,
James has spent the better part of his music career hell-bent on delivering
seminal songs, most of which have enjoyed extended periods of times hugging the
very tops of the South African and capturing hearts and minds around the world.

Never far from likeminded genius, guitarist,
singer/songwriter and globally respected purveyor of the blues, DAN PATLANSKY
sidles into his second successive decade as one of the world’s finest blues-based
storytellers of his generation. In December 2014, his album DEAR SILENCE
THIEVES (produced by Theo Crous) was voted the #1 Blues Rock Album in the world
released for 2014 by BLUES ROCK REVIEW/USA, alongside names such as Joe
Bonamassa, Rival Sons, Devon Allman, The Black Keys, Philip Sayce, and many
more. Dan started 2014 off with a bang when he was chosen to open for BRUCE
SPRINGSTEEN in front of 64 000 people at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg in
February on his High Hopes tour. Dan was personally approved by Springsteen as
support act, seeing as Springsteen rarely has guest artists for his shows.”

Nik Rabinowitz’s new show promises to be funnier than his
last show, but not as funny as his next show. It will definitely be worth your
time away from the thing you would otherwise be doing, which is lying on your
bed checking all four of your social media apps in a row, for so long, that by
the time you’re done you can go back to Facebook and start again. If you’re not
on social media, then you’ve probably binged watched all the good series, and
are now left with the ones you’re not sure about, like Chef’s Table Season 2,
and Vikings. The point is.. get out of your house! Pokémon are everywhere!
