HATCHETMAN:

With the nature of the ever evolving Cape Town music scene, Hatchetman have gone through a number of changes over the last few years. From stylistic changes to members either moving country or following other endeavours. One thing however has always remained and that is the unrivalled blend of harmony, be that three part, or the current two part. The name Hatchetman stems from the band's ability to cut straight to the heart with songs on life, love, and most things in between. The honesty, and a willingness to explore the darker and more tender sides of the human condition, as well as a very personal and human presentation of the same, sets the band apart from many of its contemporaries.


Lyrical topics range from heartbreak to a rumination of the multifaceted nature of Cape Town, while musically, the band meets somewhere between folk, rock, funk and acoustically inclined sound. Throw into this a nice mix of covers by some of the band's biggest influences, ranging from Crosby, Stills and Nash and the Beatles, to Imagine Dragons and more and you've got yourself the perfect mix for any occasion.


The duo is made up of Jonathan Tait on acoustic guitar and vocals and Matt Catto on cajon and vocals.


MISS HONEY:

Miss Honey is a musical duo from Cape Town. Sarah McArthur and Grace Newton create a hauntingly beautiful atmosphere with their voices and instruments. Miss Honey is new to the Cape Town music scene, but it's band members are not. Grace Newton and Sarah McArthur are singer/songwriters who have been playing for many years in different bands/duo's. Sarah McArthur was the winner of The Barleycorn Songwriting competition in 2017, judged the competition in 2018 and placed 2nd this year. Grace is the lead singer of the country band Old Town who has had people stomping their feet since 2018.
