Pink Floyd tribute show!

Pink Floyd tribute show!

Date: 2017-08-17

Durban musicians to stage a tribute show celebrating the career of British classic rock band Pink Floyd

The show will explore aspects of the Pink Floyd repertoire that haven't been extensively covered, even by Pink Floyd themselves, so fans can expect to hear well-loved classics that they may never have heard performed live before. The albums 'Wish You Were Here' and 'Momentary Lapse of Reason' inform the particular highlights of the evening.

Pink Floyd's music, apart from one or two well-worn standards, is too complex and diverse to be easily recreated in a local context, so to set out to do so is quite audacious. Durban band Templar Funk are building a reputation for audacity. Nonetheless, in this case they're calling in some distinguished friends to lend a hand.

Pink Floyd tribute show! is a three-piece rock band, consisting of Neil Ford, Steven Squier and Ross Tapson. They form the core of the lineup that will be doing the show, which is: Dulcie Erasmus - keyboards/vocals, Neil Ford - bass, Grant Halliday - drums, Steven Squier - guitar/vocals, Ross Tapson - guitar/vocals and Martin Sigamoney - Saxophone

All of these veteran musicians live and work in Durban, and individually and collectively enjoy the respect and affection of audiences and peers alike.

Three performances of this show are scheduled so far: 25th and 26th of August, Norwegian Hall, 214 St Thomas Rd, Musgrave, Durban. 1st of September at The Allan Wilson Shellhole, 5 Alan Paton Ave, Scottsville, Pietermaritzburg. Members of the press are invited to a rehearsal/preview at the German Club on the evening of Monday the 21st of August, at the German Club, 7 Barham Rd, Westville.

Tickets can be booked at, 081 755 9479 or 076 536 9658 or quicket.co.za
