Local Bands: Pretty Blue Guns Stepdog The Future Primitives The Great Apes Holiday Murray - And all the bands that make an effort to create mind expanding sounds, keep an ear on the ground, seems like theres a bunch of them emerging in the Cape Town underground these days. 2). Live shows: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - BRMC really changed my life when I first heard them and seeing them 20min from home in Nov last year was such a privilege, 4 months later the afterglow of those magical 2 hours are still with me.
