Desmond and the Tutus - Car Guard Tan

 

SMAC visual favourite Hanro Havenga has directed a new music video for SMAC sonic favourite Desmond the Tutus!

Not too much that needs saying - just watch the video yo!

You are re-invited to the best thing ever pretty much.

Last week I invited you to the best thing ever pretty much AKA The Phoenix Rising Magic Bus Tour. Featuring roughly half of my most favourite acts in the country, the bus is making it's final stop tonight, returning to Cape Town after blowing minds around the country. I'd walk through fire to make sure I'm at this tonight.

RSVP here!

I heart sea-cat!

So a couple weeks back I was invited to do an illustration for the French magazine "I Heart". It was for their Cape Town issue, which seemed like the perfect opportunity to combine my two favourite things to draw: kittens and giant monsters attacking helpless cities. In this case, the kitten power comes in the form of a giant seekat (that's means "octopus" if your afrikaans isn't that hot) and the city that's about to be torn apart is of course Cape Town.

Anyway, with the issue out for more than a month now, I reccon it's cool if I finally reveal this guy. May I present to you a piece I call "Tentacle cuddles from The Great Cape Sea-Cat"!

You are invited to join the dots.

South Africa's most-excellent weekly bust out, Untamed Youth has got a pretty lovely string of lineups planned for the month of April.

I'll be helping to kick things off as a part of the first lineup of the month. If you're in town, come say hi, my set's starting at 1AM.

RSVP here!

You are invited to ELM at Amuse!

Pretty gutted I'm not in town for this, but in my absence, my band of merry men are bringing more sonic hugs to our favorite little venue. Next Friday, the best bits of Eyes Like Mirrors will be making their return to Amuse next Thursday, alongside friends Bye Benco. You should head through!

RSVP here!

You are invited to the best thing ever pretty much.

I'm excited for Wednesday night and it's going to be awesome.

The Dollfins: There She Goes

This past Friday was totally mad with work and didn't get to send this one out. I could wait 4 days and get it out on a Friday, but I'll be damned if I don't share this with you right now!

If you're a fan of the band, you've probably already had your way with "There She Goes" the new single from Cape Town's bodacious Dollfins. If not: the band have released a new single, complete with a great B-Side and artwork by my dear girlfriend Anja!
