The artist, who recently celebrated 25 years in music, has just released the long-awaited third album in the successful Toeka series, reinforcing his place as one of the hardest working, critically and commercially-acclaimed South African artists.
Jaco Saaiman, entertainment manager at Carnival City, said Hofmeyr has a massive following in this region and fans will be treated to fresh new material from his latest album.
“It is going to be a fantastic show,” he added.
Hofmeyr has always been an advocate of paying tribute to great legends from the past (and present), which is what initially led to his multi-platinum award-winning Toeka-series.
The latest release, which he brings to life at Carnival City this festive season, is poised to continue this success story.
Since 2003’s first collection and 2004’s Toeka 2 CD and DVD release, Hofmeyr has worked on creating the song list for the album, based on requests from his fans.
The album features 17 re-polished gems, each loaded with pure nostalgia, along with two more brand-new originals to complement Toeka’s tried-and-tested formula.
Hofmeyr has put his unique stamp and sound on a list of legendary hits by the likes of Fanie de Jager (Ek Kyk Do Diep In Jou Oe), Cindy Alter (Substitute) and Herbie&Spence (My Enigste Een).
Hofmeyr’s versatility shines through with each track, from the animated and fun (Hak Hom Blokkies), the controversial (Die Stem), and blissful originality in between.
The first single released, “Sit Die Ligte Aan”, has charted nationally, entering at number one on various stations.
