The first (Live)5 album, which will feature over 40 live recorded tracks from over two years of live broadcasts from both local and international bands that have been featured on the show, will be available in the shops in the first week of May, 2010.
For 5FM's Catherine Grenfell, producer and host of the station's (Live)5 show, the CD is a culmination of many years of hard work and unabridged passion. “If you're a fan of live music and South African music - who could ask for a better job than hosting and producing a show like (Live)5? We have had the most unbelievable bands and experiences on the show. The intimacy of the show for the studio audience, and the platform from 5fm for the bands to play to a national audience, has made this show such an amazing experience for me. This CD is for the bands, the studio audience and you, the people who buy CDs and support South African Music.”
Local artists
Some of the local artists to be included on the new CD include: Seether, the Parlotones, HHP, Prime Circle, Goldfish, Gang of Instrumentals, JR and Locnville. International performers who have appeared on (Live)5 and who will also be featured in the CD include: Joss Stone, Staind, OK Go and The Ataris.
