Date: 2014-02-07
At the end of 2013 Guy Buttery returned to South Africa from a major world tour with stops in the UK, Canada, USA and Brazil and had every intention to lay low and get some down time. Within moments of his arrival back in SA, Guy was invited back to Brazil in early January 2014 to perform to a sold out audience in S‹o Paulo. This month renowned guitar legend Guy Buttery returns to his hometown of Durban for a special one off show with Gareth Gale (drums) and Nibs van der Spuy (cuatro & acoustic guitar). For over a decade, the South African Music Award winning musician has sealed the deal with fans around the globe with his idiosyncratic and powerful live shows. This time the artist described as a "one man guitar orchestra" presents a live performance on CD to promote the album.'Live inKwaZulu'is agathering of masterworks set before a live audience and strongly reaffirms Guy Buttery'sunique place in the world of guitar heroes today.

Recorded over two nights, this live album showcases Guy Buttery'sfurther explorations in instrumentation and innovative soundscapes.'Live in KwaZulu'features, for the first time on CD, his vivid interpretation ofJoanna Newsom's"The Book of Right On" and his much loved musical saw classic "Smithfield" (also known as "Martian Folk Song").
