TOP INTERNATIONAL ACT TO ROCK THE DAISIES AND
GARDENS
Complete Events, organisers of the Rocking the Daisies and
Rocking the Gardens Festivals, are very excited to announce
an International act to perform at both Festivals.
British rock band, New Young Pony Club, has just been
confirmed as the international act for both Rocking the Daisies
and Rocking the Gardens.
This four piece rock band from England will be bringing their
popular post-punk and New Wave sound to the stages of
South Africa for the Rocking Festivals. With many musical
influences, New Young Pony Club find it difficult to describe
themselves having simply said: “We marry the dance ethic
with the pop ethic, and make something that you can dance
to and sing along to.” After forming in 2004, New Young Pony
Club have played some of the world’s biggest festivals
including V-Fest, Wireless, Lovebox, Rock Werchter as well as
hitting Leeds and Reading Festivals later this year before
blowing up on Rocking the Daisies’ main stage come Friday
night and Rocking the Gardens on Saturday night!
Sneak preview of this year’s line-up at Rocking the Daisies and
Rocking the Gardens presented by Complete Events
Some of South Africa’s favourite musicians are sure to get
temperatures rising at this year’s Rocking the Daisies and
Rocking the Gardens. For the first time both festivals will be
taking place on the same weekend, Rocking the Daisies from
8–10 October at Cloof Wine Estate in Darling (Western Cape)
and Rocking the Gardens at Emmarentia Dam (Johannesburg)
from 9-10 October 2010.
With early bird tickets selling out, music lovers have been
waiting in anticipation for the 2010 line up. But the wait is
almost over and we have revealed some of this year’s biggest
acts.
