(Name On The Drum / Roarke Angelbright
collaboration!)
The Unassuming Roadshow is a tour
collaboration between Roarke Angelbright (singer-songwriter) and The Name On
The Drum (Indie/folk duo). Original music focused with some unique covers
thrown in. They went on an Eastern Cape tour and Gauteng tour together as The
Unassuming Roadshow, and now offer the best of both these acts, as TNOTD and
Roarke Angelbright combine their talents to bring the evening to what promises
to be a remarkable close!
20h30: The Name On The Drum
“The Name On The Drum” is an alternative
rock, folk and indie band that focuses on playing original music but they also
insert a variety of covers into their live shows. Ranging their sound from full
electric to simple acoustics, The Name On The Drum uses all the tools at their
disposal to create a unique blend of honest, thought provoking song-writing
with absorbing musical performances.
With influences that include, Rise Against,
Bob Dylan, Frightened Rabbit, The National, Angus & Julia Stone and Gregory
Alan Isakov, their song writing also creates awareness of current world issues.
(Ben &
Nat Bruzas)
When the band was formed in 2011, the plan
was to have a different 'name on the drum' at each performance, now they simply
go by "The Name On The Drum" or "TNOTD".
Current performing members are brothers Ben
and Nat Bruzas. Who, in July 2019 released
their independently recorded and produced second EP "Souvenirs".
They are based in Hillcrest and have played extensively around KZN, as well as
touring Gauteng and the Eastern Cape.

inspirations from Bradley Cooper to Sarah Jarosz, Lewis Capaldi and KT
