Goldfish, Rudimentals to play at 5 for Change 2013

Their genre-defying mix of live instruments, house beats and searing live performances have seen Goldfish go from impromptu jams at a tiny beach club in Cape Town to headlining Amsterdam's Olympic Stadium, cracking a top 10 on the US iTunes Dance chart, a residency at Pacha Ibiza with David Guetta and DJs like Fedde le Grand knocking at their door to do remix their tracks. It's almost hard to believe that not very long ago they were just Dom and Dave, two music students who lived a relatively chilled life of surfing and playing music in Cape Town.

Joining Goldfish on their ongoing mission to support the town they grew up in are The Rudimentals. This family comprises experienced professional musicians from Cape Town and the lead vocalist is from Zimbabwe. The sound is unique, a fusion of reggae, ska, rock and jazz influences (and more).

The band has played and headlined at every festival in South Africa: Synergy Live, Splashy Fen, Up the Creek and Rocking the Daisies, Oppikoppi, CapeTown Jazz fest Cape Town Festival, Kirstenbosch Gardens, De Waal Park Concerts, V&A Waterfront, and many more.
