Panic! at the Disco EXCITED to be in SA

A string of international artists have officially landed in SA ahead of the I Heart Joburg Music Festival this Saturday.

Among them are Panic! at the Disco. Others include Fallout Boy, Jessie J, T-Pain and Jason Derulo. They'll be performing alongside some of the country's top musicians to give party-goers eleven hours of non-stop fun!

The band's frontman, Brendon Urie caught up with 5FM's Nick and Kim to chat about being in the country and what fans can expect at the festival.

"I love it here. We're going to do all the touristy stuff, hit the local bars to listen to some local stories. It's my favourite thing to do," he said.

He was also quizzed about South African politics and surprisingly didn't do too badly. Brendon also spoke about how much love he has for his little Jack Russel.

We couldn't help but notice how hot he is!
