Airborne Reunion Concert in Cape Town

The Airborne band was formed in 1984, has been a popular and regular attraction at venues and concerts in Cape Town and around the country. It is primarily a five-piece unit consisting of keyboards, bass, lead guitar, saxophone and drums, and regularly features guest artists at its concerts and recording collaborations.

Sean O'Connell, keyboard player and vocalist is one of the founding members of the band and attributes Airborne's sound and focus on excellence to Tony Schilder, one of his musical mentors who gave him the opportunity to play with The Tony Schilder Trio at Club Montreal at the tender age of 15. After 30 years and almost 60 band members, the core band has come together again to bring you a night of musical and social memories.

Thirtieth anniversary

This event will host 750 people in an upmarket 'dance-like' concert and will include a live performance by the core band, featuring Tracy Butler and associated artists from over the years. I'm really looking forward to just spending quality time with everyone. The memories, the musos - it's going to be stunning," said O'Connell.
