SCENIC SESSIONS Hesitate

Gerald Clark is on the road, travelling and making music. Each week we will bring you the most beautiful settings in South Africa with some good old blues. Welcome the Scenic Sessions.

When you are on the road you see the most beautiful places. So, we decided to bring the best of South Africa to you complemented by the blues – all filmed on my iPhone.

The first Scenic Session was recorded on a farm outside of Smitfield on a windy morning. We were visiting friends, both new in the farming world, one of them plants cabbages and the other bakes really colourful, slightly kitch cakes while they are waiting for their sheep to arrive.

Big Blues Meets Rock

Gerald has been on tour in the North doing his thing. So, Cape Town if you are hungry for your favourite Blues-Afro-Genius, he will be giving Dan Patlansky a go on the 9th of April at the Hillcrest Quarry.

Get your tickets from Computicket.

GERALD WILL HIT THE STAGE ON FRIDAY NIGHT

Make sure to take an extra day off and book your tickets for Mieliepop. Visit their Facebook page for more info. Al I can say is this fest looks like it's one for the calendar.

On the Road with AfroBoer & the GoldenGoose

With the start of the new year, so did a new adventure for Gerald Clark and his GoldenGoose. The two decided to pack up their home in Jonkershoek, give heeps of stuff away, and leave everything behind to promote his new album, AfroBoer & the GoldenGoose, across country. Kitted with a rooftop-tent, their bikes, and music equipment the two of them are living out of the bakkie and exploring wherever they can. 

Their journey started at Up the Creek this year and currently they are putting on their Hi-tecs to conquer the beautiful Tugela Falls. With this said, everyone knows how great a cold beer is after any hike, ride, or just stop-over. With a tiny frigde at the back, space is limited, but they found the perfect fit – craft beer in a can.

CBC recently launched a Pale Ale in a can and it's delicious, easy to pack, and sustainable. They will recommend it to any traveller. Take it on your journey. 

The Cradle of Humankind and a one man prodigy

Again, Gerald did like all great bluesmen do, put his woman a side for his first great love – strumming that guitar and singing them blues. Valentine's Day at the Nirox Blues Festival wouldn't have been the same without him. 

Gerald took his place on a patch of grass, solo, at the bottom of the rolling hills and showed us what he is made of. Gerald Clark is one of the only solo artist who can keep you completely captivated and in awe from the start to finish. And then you can't help shouting for more. 

Valentine's Day, with or without a lover, I am in love with him and his new CD, AfroBoer & the GoldenGoose. If you don't know what I'm talking about, buy it here: https://itunes.apple.com/za/album/afroboer-the-goldengoose/id1058465331

AfroBoer & the GoldenGoose

We are packing up our stable, we're rigging our bakkie and we're hitting the road on a music / writing adventure, exploring every character, mountain and stream we can find.

Kickin' off the New Year.

Gerald counted off the last ten seconds off 2015 alongside Guy Collins and Barry van Zyl at the Crab Shack in Cape Town. 

Soon he'll be hitting the road to promote his new album, AfroBoer & the GoldenGoose. There's exciting stuff to come. Like him on Facebook and travel with. 

If you haven't heard, his album is available on iTunes.
