MELANIE LOWE LIVE

Hexagon Dive in Pietermaritzburg to host South African songstress on March 5.

KZN born, South African songstress, Melanie Lowe is returning to Pietermaritzburg as part of her 2010 tour of the province, for a one-night-only show at The Hexagon Dive on March 5. It has been nearly seven months since Melanie performed in her home province and this tour promises to be Melanie at her best! Featuring her much-loved hit songs and a few surprises, each show will strip back the mask and offer an intimate portrait into Melanie’s life, as she shares her own experiences and the stories behind her songs. Sultry and sexy as ever, but 100% Melanie, loyal fans won’t be disappointed and new fans will be captivated.

Melanie Lowe’s music career started many years ago when she began to write songs at the age of 14. She has been a professional singer/songwriter for 15 years but many people will remember her when she became a household name seven years ago as she made her way to the third slot of the first South African version of Idols. Since then she has won, and been nominated for, several SAMA awards, and has carved out a successful music career for herself as a singer/songwriter, gaining herself many fans worldwide, as well as much respect from her peers in the music industry.
