Cape Town – Loki Rothman has released a video of a cover song in Afrikaans featuring Pierre Greeff, frontman for Die Heuwels Fantasties.
The song, Die Kamer, is a cover of an Amanda Strydom song which features Stef Bos.
Loki, a 2016 Sama nominee for Best Pop Album, has been releasing his popular #OneManBand cover videos of international hits from his Facebook page and YouTube channel since 2015. So far he has put his unique spin on Justin Bieber’s Sorry, Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’ Uptown Funk, Bills by LunchMoney Lewis and Sam Smith meets August Rush’s Leave Your Lover.
Loki decided to shake things up with this release and roped in a collaborator and covered a song in his mother tongue for the first time.
Loki has been a fan of Pierre Greeff from Die Heuwels Fantasties’ voice for a long time and phoned him to invite him to do an Afrikaans cover with him.
"Pierre told me that he’s always wanted to do something with the Amanda Strydom song, My Kamer which also features Stef Bos. I listened to the song and I immediately knew what we could do with it."
