Right people, join us for "Beer, Burgers and Blues"  with The Martin Brothers performing live in the Dwars Bar on 12 October at Koedoeskloof.
This is also over the same weekend as the Seweweekspoort MTB and Ladismith Cheese and Wine Festival.
We have the awesome Martin brothers to entertain us.
Unfortunately all our rooms have been booked out but about 20 camping spots are still available. Alternative accommodation can be arranged on request, just phone me for more info.
Standard camping rates of R65-00 p/p/p night will apply and a cover of R50-00 will be charged.
We and our little establishment can only handle so many people at a time so the first 20 guys to confirm attendance by payment are in.
Please phone, mail or send naked runner with cleft stick to confirm avaiability and book your spot in good time!

For those of you who didn’t attend the Gauteng Bash at Redstar a few years ago here a bio of the brothers Martin.

The 'Martin Brothers' are called that for a good reason. They are two blood brothers from Pretoria South Africa , namely 'Johnathan and Aidan Martin'.
These guys are guitar duo like no other, sounding like a mixture of Neil Young meets Ali Farka Toure meets Rory Gallagher. These guys have many influences, but make no mistake that you'll know a Martin brothers original when you hear it!

Between writing, recording and touring these brother from Pretoria are keeping themselves very busy. They are putting together a series of live recordings for an album ,because these brothers are at their best live, there is a high demand for a live recording for the audience to take home. They feed off each other’s raw energy and a wild, open air. Besides the upcoming live album Johnathan and Aidan are both working on side projects. A new studio album by Johnathan will be released in June 2013, making it his 3rd studio album. Previous albums, 'in my blood' and 'machete' were received with inspiring reviews and radio airplay, and the constant touring resulted in steady sales. Aidan martin will also be releasing a solo album , and his backing band consisting of Georgiades brothers Ben(bass) and Dave(drums) rock like no other trio in S.A. Aidan Martin trio have been blowing away festival goers around the country and abroad for 2 years now, namely 'oppikoppi, 'mielie pop' and many more.

Johnathan Martin has long been a respected musician on the local circuit . He has played for Jack Hammer for 10 years and toured the country as well as abroad constantly for 15 years respectively. He has also shared the stage with great South African legends like Vusi Mahlasela, the Blues Broers, Black Cat Bones and many many more.
He has played on countless compilations and played sessions since 1995.
Aidan martin has studied and toured abroad, and is a formidable musician in his own right. A master of slide, harmonica and mandolin make him a potent asset to any duo.
He has also shared the stage with greats like Albert Frost and Piet Botha.

We could fill a hundred pages with information about the Martin Brothers, but nothing can prepare you for their live energy. These brothers are true disciples of music and believe in the philosophy that music heals the mind, body and soul. They live to play music together and it shows when the first notes are played. A telepathy like only two brothers could know, makes their acoustic duo one of those musical acts you must follow.

Hope to see a few Wild Dogs here for the jol.
