Cape Town Folk ‘n Acoustic Music Festival for Kirstenbosch

30 January 2013 By admin

For lovers of folk music the 3rd Cape Town Folk ‘n Acoustic Music Festival will be a highlight of this year’s Old Mutual Summer Sunset concerts. Take time out to be at Kirstenbosch on February 10 when the scene is set for this amazing line up of popular performers.

Featuring artists like Ard Matthews, Steve Newman, Wendy Oldfield, Farryl Purkiss, Guy Buttery and Nibs Van Der Spuy, Robin Auld, Digby and The Lullaby, Tombstone Pete and Andrew James, the afternoon promises to be unforgettable for an audience of acoustic music die-hards and curious newcomers. For some of the artists it is a first at Kirstenbosch while others have performed regularly at this magnificent venue.

The show is styled on a ‘70s folk concert, where all artists perform solo or duo sets completely acoustically. Under the banner of personal story-telling – it offers a close look into the journeys from South Africa’s finest musicians – all in a beautiful open air setting.

The very first Cape Town Folk ‘n Acoustic Music Festival took place on Saturday 10th December at the CTICC, Cape Town. It was a huge success and set a positive precedent of how the event’s format is received. The 2nd Cape Town Folk n Acoustic Music Festival on the 10th and 11th August was sold out and ran for two nights at the historical Fugard Theatre.

The Old Mutual Summer Sunset Concerts take place at Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden (RhodesDrive , Newlands, Cape Town) on Sundays from 17h30 – 19h00.

Gates open at 16h00
