8:40pm – Hooligoose
Meet Hooligoose, a funky rock trio that brings a fresh
groove sound to the stage. Fronted by a dynamic vocalist with a passion for
soulful melodies, the band is anchored by the steady, thumping bass lines of
Malcolm. Rounding out the line-up is Ethan, the prodigious 13-year-old drummer,
and son of the lead vocalist, whose youthful energy and killer beats drive the
band’s funky rock pulse.
Formed out of friendship, family, and a shared love for
music that makes you move, Hooligoose delivers a sound that’s equal parts
gritty and playful, drawing inspiration from the likes of Red Hot Chili
Peppers, Parliament-Funkadelic, and classic rock swagger. Hooligoose isn’t just
a band, it’s a celebration of connection, creativity, and the power of
funk-infused rock.
Meet Staytree, the coolest trio of rockers ever to hit the
stage! Made up of three brothers, this band is all about big energy, wild
riffs, and having fun. With 13-year-old Ethan on drums, 12-year-old Rylee
rocking the guitar, and 10-year-old Shaun bringing the noise on bass, Staytree
is a force to be reckoned with. Their name, Staytree, comes from their mom,
Stacey: “the tree that holds us together”.
Inspired by bands like Just Jinger, Prime Circle, Creed,
Imagine Dragons, Green Day, The Beatles and many more, Staytree mixes catchy
beats with lyrics about just being kids.
Erin Fourie is a South African singer best known as a Top 16
contestant on the 7th season of the M-Net reality competition Idols. Erin’s audition got her four “yes”es
from the Judges in Durban, which means that she could stop looking for a
teaching job and start focusing on her singing skills. She was a Top 10
finalist of South African Idols in 2011.
Since 2003, Erin Fourie has become a well-known name on the
Midlands music circuit. As a solo artist, she has entertained at restaurants,
coffee shops and events.
She has worked in musical theatre on big stage shows such as
Godspell, Young, Gifted and Gorgeous,
and The Durban Playhouse's 2016 production of The Sound of Music. Closer to home she has performed in While My Guitar, 50 Ways to Leave your Lover,
and Ladies Sing the Blues.
She’s been playing guitar since she was 13 and is currently
trying to master the ukulele. Erin has a PGCE as well as an Honours Degree in
Drama (from UKZN in Pietermaritzburg). She is certain that the stage is where
she belongs: be it performing or singing, there’s nowhere she’d rather be. Erin
is one of Hilton’s best-loved vocalists and is an utter treat to listen to.
