Steve Fataar First Guest In New Durban Concept Music Box
Steve Fataar First Guest In New Durban Concept Music Box
Music Box is a monthly event that shows the audience another side of an artist they thought they knew so well. The concept encourages the audience to listen to the stories that the artist has to tell. The artists involved choose to translate the most important sources of inspiration to them.
This first edition has an intimate set-up and offers you a peek into the living room of Durban guitarist and musical legend Steve Fataar, where he will tell the story of his live through music. Steve's interesting and sometimes tumultuous life is like a classic tale of rock n' roll turmoil, triumph and redemption. As you go on this journey with this fascinating 70-year old musician, Steve will tell you stories from backstage, stories about crazy fans and the brave step he took to leave the music INDUSTRY to actually go play music.
Together with his brothers, Ricky and Edries, Steve Fataar helped to make the Flames one of South Africa's best bands of the 1960s. Formed in 1964, The Flames were "discovered" by Carl Wilson of The Beach Boys while performing in a London club in 1969. These days he lives and plays in Durban. Crowned a living treasure by the mayor of Durban in September 2000, South African musician and pioneer - Steve Fataar has had the pleasure and success of performing with his family throughout his journey.
As part of this new event a You Tube Channel has been initiated under the name MusicBoxDBN on which artists anecdotes will be revealed in the weeks before the event. For this first edition of Music Box interviewed Steve Fataar in the living room of his parental home; the place where his career started.
