Maritzburg's Music Club at La Casa will present Larry Amos on
August 9.
“A fantastic way for all genders to end off a great Woman's
Day - brilliant blues-rocker Amos is back in his favourite 'home-town' to grace
our stage once more with his irresistible, tantalising sounds; accompanied by
some of Maritzburg's own local legends,” says the MMC organisers.
Amos is widely regarded by his peers as the 'best blues
guitarist in the country'. Born in Gauteng he started playing guitar at the age
of 9. Six years later he formed a band that went on to win third prize at a
Battle of the Bands held at the City Hall in Pietermaritzburg. He began his
professional career after signing with an agency as a solo-artist with his
first gig in the Persian Room at the Four Seasons Hotel in Durban.
“Additionally, MMC are delighted to announce a new
development as we will now be offering delicious food brought to you by
professional Cape Town chef Amy and Midlands own artisan, wood-fired, GMO-free
'Love Bread' - a tasty beef or vegetarian soup will be on offer.”
Amos will perform at La Casa on August 9 at 19h00. Entrance R40.
The stage will be open for the first hour for any keen muso to show their
skills.
The home of the Maritzburg Musicians Club, La Casa (formerly
The Red Door) is situated in Quarry Road, off Victoria Road, in Pietermaritzburg.
