Guitarist Allou April will be performing at the Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset concert on 25 February 2007. Allou April will be replacing Jimmy Dludlu who was originally scheduled to perform at Kirstenbosch on this date.

Allou April got his start over 15 years ago playing with garage bands from the tender age of 16. After moving from his hometown of Saldanha to Cape Town in the 1970's, he was discovered by some of the city's top gospel bands, and so began his career as one of the most sought after session musicians in the Mother City.

He has collaborated with many outstanding musicians such as Sibongile Khumalo, Robbie Jansen, Hotep Galeta, Joe McBride and Al Jarreau. He recently released his second solo album 'Colourful World' which blends jazz, house, gospel and R&B.
