Getting stoked for the first @krakatoa_band show of the year. @thestripedhorsemuizenberg is such a baller spot to hang out in the summer afternoon - surfers drifting in and out from the beach, comfy chairs, craft beers and cetera.

Short set up time on Saturday for the #deathofpop show at the Mercury finally got me to get all the effects set up in advance so I can just plug a cable into either end without fuss.

I’m concocting a cheesy plan with @sad_ivan to use our SGs in the upcoming #deathofpop show we’re doing with @krakatoa_band. They need a bit of stage time, even if they’re not what you think of as surf guitars. On the other hand, Link Wray used one for a long time so…

Surprise show with smooth and synthy headliners, @emergermusic, at Mercury live on Sat, 18th May. Also @coriander_colin. Strange bedfellows make for strange and magical nights. This isn’t the official event thingy, obvs. We just wanted to make sure you Krakatoa people got a heads-up.

This Saturday afternoon at SurfaRosa in Cape Town. We commence the summer at a braai session. Our most exciting show of the year. Start the summer right. Braai on the pavement. Craft-beer, cocktails, pizza, and blood-stirring live music inside.

A piece by @cara.stacey designed to transport our Southern African traditional sounds into the realms of the string quartet.

All churches should be turned into beautiful recording studios. Here to watch #shhArt perform and record their radical take on string quartets.

It’s Monday. But don’t throw yourself off a bridge! If you’re in Cape Town, my surf-rock band, Krakatoa, is putting on a great show on Friday 2 March at ROAR live here in Obz - with other committed entertainers, Three More White Guys and The Ratrod Cats serving up flame grilled Countrybilly and Rockabilly stomp. Also we’re celebrating @sad_ivan’s birthday.
