GUY BUTTERY IN KLOOF

Guy Buttery will perform in Kloof on March 4 at Bluestockings. 2010 was an exceptionally profound year for him. Barely moments after winning “Best Instrumental Album” at the South African Music Awards and straight off the plane from a European Festival Tour, he returned home to South Africa for a run at the National Arts Festival and won not one, but two National Awards including the Standard Bank Golden Ovation Award for the Best Music Production of the festival, out of 4,600 acts.

Apart from local achievements, Guy’s worldwide scope and recognition rose exponentially post the release of his third and latest album, Fox Hill Lane. The response Guy received for what he believes to be his most mature album to date was phenomenal. Apart from the obvious accolades surrounding winning awards, Guy met nothing but glowing reports in 2010 on both the musicality and production of Fox Hill Lane with international press. The most noticeable of these being a three-page spread in the latest edition of Guitar Player Magazine (the world’s biggest guitar related publication) which subscribes to over 11 million readers.

Guy Buttery’s performance on March 4 is at 19h30 for 20h00 and Bluestockings is situated at 16 Dan Pienaar Road in Kloof. Tickets R60 booked through Narene on 083 659 3628 or email: narene@telkomsa.net More information at www.guybuttery.co.za
