Prime Circle to rock Botanical Gardens
Fresh from an extensive European tour to promote their latest smash hit album, Evidence, Prime Circle will rock the Pretoria National Botanical Gardens on 18 August and the Walter Sisulu National Botanical Gardens on 1 September as the Old Mutual Music at the Gardens concert series celebrates Women’s Month and Spring day.
Visitors to the gardens will experience one of South Africa’s most celebrated rock acts: Prime Circle who have won numerous South African Music Awards have shared the stage with international rock royalty such as 3 Doors Down and Metallica as well as Live.
Fans will know the recently released, trailblazing single “Staring at Satellites” from the fifth album Evidence - and there is more to come.
The group is currently in studio recording new material and show goers will likely be the first to hear what is in store for summer 2013.
Rising rock bands Feed The Wolf and Short Straw are the opening acts at the Pretoria Botanical Gardens and Jet Black Camaro and Naming James will do the honours at Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens.
While the music will be hot the piece de resistance is the setting. Each show is set in two of the nation’s most spectacular botanical gardens. Flora newbies will marvel at the blooming splendour, while visiting horticulturalists will delight in the late winter and early spring blooms. Think fiery clivia shrubs and pretty wild irises.
“These events are one of our favourites to perform at, being invited back is a huge honour and to perform in the outdoors, and do something for the environment is rewarding for any musician.” said Prime Circle lead singer and guitarist Ross Learmonth.
Ultimately the truth is in the experience. Music fans are encouraged to come early, bring picnic chairs and blankets and spend the day in natural beauty. The whole family is welcome - there is also a supervised children’s area.
