Guy Buttery | House Concert in Kalk Bay

“Guy Buttery is something of a National treasure”, says South Africa’s leading newspaper The Mercury. Guy’s
distinct unification of South African guitar music is the musical advocate for everything positive and beautiful about
the place he calls home. Join Guy Buttery for his singular public performance on his upcoming visit to Cape Town in 
an intimate space in Kalk Bay. Space is limited. 

In 2018, Guy received the highest accolade for a musician in South Africa and was awarded the
Standard Bank Young Artist Award. In almost 4 decades of honouring artist throughout the country, this was the first
time since its inception that the award was presented to a musician outside of the classical realm.

Buttery has worked with an incredible myriad of artists including Dave Matthews, Jethro Tull, Vusi Mahlasela,
multiple Grammy Award Winner Will Ackerman, Salif Keita, Preston Reed, The Violent Femmes, Jon Gomm and
countless others. The media has cited him “as one of the finest exponents of the acoustic guitar in the World.” Expect
high dynamics, deep grooves, delicate African inflections and mind-bending guitar playing of an entirely new order.
