Eight top South African artists and bands will be performing on stage in a lovely picnic-style setting. The lineup includes Die Heuwels Fantasties, Francois van Coke, Early B, Arno Carstens, Majozi, Karlien van Jaarsveld, Snotkop and Loki Rothman.
Spread the liefde
Loki Rothman will be releasing a new album later this year. “I usually play solo, but I will be performing with a band at the concert. This is a new direction for my music and show. I can't wait!”
Karlien van Jaarsveld and Die Heuwels Fantasties will also be performing some of their new tracks.
Majozi is looking forward to being back on the Liefde stage: “People can expect to sing along to all my favourite songs with me. Let’s have a good time! Be kind, put other people before yourself and think before you speak. I always like using this quote from Quincy Jones: “Never be a better musician than you are a person.”
Arno Carstens will mostly be performing songs from his award-winning album DieAandblom13, as well as some other familiar tunes. This is his first show at Liefde by die Dam. When asked about how to spread a bit more love, Carstens answers: “Focus on the feelings of others, dig deep and smile!”
Liefde by die Dam event has teamed up with Liefde Wen for the past three years to collect blankets for the less privileged after the concerts. Bring your picnic blanket and leave it behind at the end of the day. The Liefde Wen team will make sure that the blankets find new homes where needed.
Pierre Greeff (Die Heuwels Fantasties), one of the organisers of the event, says: “Our recent concert at Emmarentia Dam was attended by 12,000 people. What a vibe! And everything ran smoothly on the day. Meerendal with the beautiful Winelands and mountains as a backdrop is the perfect venue for our Cape Town show.”
Tickets are available for purchase on Howler.
