, Durban,

It might be hard to imagine that one of the most exciting live electronica acts in the world right now originates from a small city on the southern-most tip of Africa, but the success story behind Cape Town’s electronica phenomenon Goldfish, has been nothing short of extraordinary.
From their beginnings as classically trained Jazz students, recording their 1st track with little more than a sax, a double bass and a couple of synths - these two house-head-jazz-muso-multi-instrumentalist-funksters are seriously onto something. That ‘something’ includes a live mix of hypnotic vocals, screaming synths, and more saxophones, double bass and keyboards than a secondhand music shop. Their cult following the world over can be attributed to their unique live show – a brand of Live Jazzy Electronica that regularly turns a sedate dance floor into something closer resembling a football match.
Goldfish are a true South African success story. The easy-going nature of Dom and Dave offstage belies their fearsome live show and an unstoppable ambition to take on the worlds` best. They return to Durban from an unprecedented international tour performing at some of the world`s biggest festivals - including Glastonbury, Ultra Festival Miami, Sensation White Amsterdam and Get Loaded in the Park.
Starting at 2:30pm. Tickets available through Tunegum.com. Early Bird ticket price R70 Adults and R20 children 6-12yrs. Tickets purchased on Sunday 8 November will be R100 Adults and R20 children 6-12 yrs.
