Cape Town – If you’re looking to celebrate the New Year in a chilled setting with some rocking music, then we have just the thing for you!
With an international act on board and some of SA’s hottest bands already confirmed, the Electric Vines live music festival promises to celebrate the New Year in style.
The festival is taking place at the Arabella Wine Estate in Robertson Valley on Tuesday 30 December and Wednesday 31 December 2014.
Local bands that have been confirmed for the line-up include Just Jinjer, Prime Circle, Pascal & Pearce, Monark, Matthew Mole, Cath Grenfell, Goodluck, Jesse Clegg, Gangs of Ballet and Jeremy Loops.
The international act that will be playing is Sun City. Dance/pop duo Sun City hails from Australia. Within 6 months of forming in 2011, they released their self-titled EP and had already landed slots at some of Australia’s biggest dance music festivals, including Parklife, Stereosonic and Future Music.
In late 2012 Sun City released their second EP, Set Alight, which was followed by the release of a number of singles and a string of remixes. They have also supported a number of international acts such as Example, Robert Delong and Kimbra as part of their Australian tour schedules. Internationally, Sun City has toured Africa twice, including headlining a boutique festival and receiving support and live on-air performance on 5FM.
