In 2010 Callen Petersen and I, Jody Abel, arrived on the entertainment
scene. We’ve been at it for few years now and are fortunate to have performed
at a number of corporate functions, weddings and other social events. We tend
to frequent various Cape Town wine routes, as this is where most of our gigs
take place. Of course, we’re not complaining, WINE route… Need we say more?
Going forward, we plan to take a camera along with us to
these gigs, that way we can post pictures of these stunning venues. We may comment on the food from time to time –
just because we can.
We’ve taken the liberty of answered a few of FAQs. Although
flattering these questions are sometimes well, rather annoying. You’ll see why!
Q: Do you guys have a CD?
A: No, we don't have
one yet.
Q: How much do you charge for a gig?
A: A lot, if you're asking, you can’t afford us!!
Q: Do you guys have a drummer or a singer?
A: Do you see a drummer or a singer?
Q: Can you take off your clothes while playing?
A: Well… Um... I suggest you contact Mavericks at 021…
We recently signed with Lee Saaiman and are officially
represented by Stereotype Records. This is an extremely exciting chapter in our
music careers and we look forward to future collaborating with various South
African artists.
Hopefully in a few months’ time we’ll be able to answer the
first FAQ differently:
Q: Do you guys have a CD?
A: Yes! Go check it out!
The purpose of this blog is merely to document some of the amazing
experiences we've had. As such, we like to think of this blogspot as an Acoustic
Element online diary. If there are spelling errors, grammatical errors, faults
in the sentence structure – please forgive us. Copy writing is not particularly
our forte. We play music. We're very good at it.
We're at a very interesting stage of our careers. Callen works
hard in his 9-5 fashion industry job and I keep myself busy at varsity and at my
part-time communications job. Fortunately, the gigs are flowing in. The only issue is
that they seem to crop up at times that don't always suit our busy schedules. So unfortunately
we find ourselves turning many of them down. Although it's disappointing at
times, we're quite honoured to be able to say that we're in demand! Follow us on Facebook for updates on upcoming events!
