The summer sunset concerts at Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens have become excellent events to enjoy on a Sunday afternoon in the Botanical Gardens on the slopes of Cape Town’s Table Mountain.

This iconic Afrikaans punk rock band made history when their single ’Hemel op die platteland’ was the first Afrikaans song to be officially play-listed on 5fm.

The website sarock.com describes their music as high-quality hard melodic rock with a punch of punk.

They released their second album ’Die Swanesang’, including the hit single ’Brand Suid-Afrika', in 2006.
