A One-Man, One-Mic Show….
Join singer-songwriter, Dave Starke and
his trusty microphone “Myrtle” as they present a showcase of acoustic music
delivered using the single microphone amplification style that was prevalent in
the 1940s.
The show takes place at Rhumbelow Theatre on Sunday, December 28, at 14h00. The venue opens 90 minutes before show
Long before digital effects and even mixing desks, single large-diaphragm microphones were the go-to solution for amplifying live performances and often had to capture entire ensembles onstage.
In a world that is increasingly high-tech, Dave has chosen low-tech … returning to honest, human performances where frailty and imperfection are embraced rather than hidden. You can expect familiar favourites from some of Dave's favourite songwriters such as Leonard Cohen, Carole King, Bob Dylan and James Taylor as well as traditional folk songs and some of his latest original works. This will be Dave's last performance in KZN before he relocates to Kalk Bay, Cape Town, in January.
