8.00pm – Duncan Park
Duncan Park is a psychedelic folk musician from Durban. His new album, "After the Earth Has Burned" is a musical collage built from stunning pastoral, finger-plucked folk on an acoustic guitar and harsh electric drones through synthesizers and amp stacks. Dunacn’s acoustic folk symbolizes the romanticised concept of the earth, the natural realm and tranquility, while the harsh electronic drones represent the industrialized, polluted and smog filled hellscape of modern urbanisation. He will be performing a stripped down solo set of acoustic guitar and vocals for the MiTH faithful.
9.00pm – Serrotone
MiTH also bids a warm welcome to main act, Serrotone. Peter Guthrie, vocalist and prolific songwriter with Spoonfeedas for 12 years, has teamed up with James Robertson and close friend, superb drummer Billy Kruger. Robertson who sang and wrote material for Spoonfeedas in 2001, also went on to form Cubic Inch. Between Guthrie and Robertson they have been part of writing and performing more than ten charting singles (including 2 no 1 singles and a handful of top 10's) on South African radio.
With Spoonfeedas, Guthrie has opened for artists like Muse, Velvet Revolver, SImple Plan Marky Ramone (Ramones), Metallica and Ronan Keating. He has also performed the National anthem in Christchurch NZ before a Trinations rugby test. Robertson has opened for Bryan Adams on his SA tour with his band Cubic Inch, while Billy has played with a variety of established artists at some impressive events like the Youth Day concert in Amsterdam with group MIC where they performed after Delirious at Ajax Football Stadium in front of 140 000 people.
