KNYSNA ENTERTAINMENT NEWS - Gerald Clark, who has been touring Eastern Europe for a few years now, will be at Red Bridge Brewery in Knysna on Friday 25 January with his band from Czech Republic as part of a 14-day tour in SA.
The musicians joining him are some of the finest and most talented Czech Republic has to offer and they regularly serve as backing for international blues, country and folk stars touring in Eastern Europe.
The band features Jiri "Lightning Boy" Marsicek on electric guitar, Tomas Hobsek on drums and Matej Cerny on bass.
They form a formidable backing to Clark's original songwriting style which is very deeply entrenched with blues and soul tweaked with a twist of folk and country ballads.
On his latest album, Afrocoustic, he had the privilege of working with members of the Johhny Clegg and the Freshley Ground band who introduced him to the African elements you can trace on his latest offering.
The audience can expect a very tight, well-rehearsed band with an original fresh sound. A combination of international experience that these boys from Czech accumulated over the years and the magic that Clark has to offer.
Expect fireworks, solid grooves and a superb musical experience which only seasoned musicians with their roots strongly in the blues can provide.
