Basson Laubscher & The Violent Free Peace with Riaan Nieuwenhuis

Dubbed South Africa’s Rory Gallagher, Basson Laubscher is one talented

musician. Born and raised in Stellenbosch, Basson fell in love with music!

At the tender age of 10 he started playing guitar and has never looked back.

During his high school career he met fellow band member Bertie Coetzee and

helped form one of South Africa’s most loved bands, Zinkplaat who performed

at all of South Africa's most loved festivals for over 10 years!

After the band split, Basson knew he had to pursue music further and thus The

Violent Free Peace was born, with a passion for Blues Rock!

The Violent Free Peace have released 2 albums to date: With their first EP titled,

Shakedown and their more recent release titled, Testify which will no doubt

have you believing in a higher power of good old school boogie! This is one

band you don't want to miss live!

Joining Basson Laubscher & TVFP will be local legend, Riaan Nieuwenhuis. Riaan is a composer and multi-instrumentalist, based in Paarl, South Africa. His music spans the genres of Indie Rock to New Age, Classical and Blues. Compositions range from spacious, ethereal and melodic piano, to adrenalin-pumping, power-driven rock instrumentals.

This is one show not to be missed
