ABOUT
Join us for an evening at Apprentice Restaurant as we dine to the sounds of Georgetown. They are a multi-instrumental Blue Billy Folk Pop band from Pretoria South Africa. Formed in February 2014, the talented Michael de Villiers, Renaldo van Dyk, Rynier Prins, and Tiaan Erasmus, have told their stories and shared their rhythms across mainstages, theatres, and towns.
With its roots planted in diverse Southern Africa, Georgetown is a captivating hybrid of the classics and unique local influences. They bring audiences together with the use of a variety of musical instruments during their performances, including acoustic guitar, piano, upright bass, mandolin, harmonica, clarinet, saxophone, a washboard, and a 1935 suitcase, promising a distinctive and creative sound to contemporary and original folk music.
Georgetown’s first studio EP Banana Jack was released in 2016. In 2018 they released their first full-length album called The Dog Show.
