Eon The Mod at The Black Power Station, Makhanda

From the 8th to the 24th of May 2026 French South African electric poetry band Eon The Mod will be in South Africa for The Make UBUNTU Great Again Tour.

Following on from the release of their latest album “25 Lìve” in December of 2025, the MUGA tour begins with rehearsals and shows in and around Durban KZN before the band hits the road for East London, Makhanda and Johannesburg.

Eon The Mod is a three piece electronic outfit fronted by South African Spoken Word artist and Poetry Slam champion Ewok. Ewok’s poetry and lyrics are embedded in the improvised soundscapes of French modular musician and composer Charles Amblard. The duo are complimented by another French artist, professional sound designer and engineer Vincent Hoppe. The trio offers a dynamic performance range developed through their more than 30 years of combined performance experience, from the most intimate of theatre spaces to the largest of festival stages.

In December 2025 Eon The Mod released “25 Lìve” on Bandcamp, an album of live performance recordings from their European tour of the same year. The tracks capture the essence and energy of an ETM show as it played out on multiple stages in France, Belgium and the Netherlands, culminating in their debut appearance at the Afrovibes Festival in Amsterdam.

The Make UBUNTU Great Again Tour is the first time that the project will be appearing in South Africa. The theme of the tour is rooted in the band’s conscious socio-political content and their positioning themselves as a part of the global movement for a more just and equitable society. Eon The Mod believes strongly in the part that art and artists play in the push for eco-social justice worldwide.
