Seed Experiences and 5fm are proud to announce that Beatenberg, Freshlyground, Bongeziwe Mabandla, Hot Water and BCUC have all been confirmed for various cities to support the unassuming folk singer behind hits like “Budapest” and “Blame It On Me”, during his SA Tour.
For the Johannesburg concert, on August 30, on the Festival Lawns at Carnival City, Freshlyground, BCUC and Bongeziwe Mabandla have been added to the mix to support George (or “Geoff” as he is known to his fans) during his set.
Ezra made headlines recently when his debut album “Wanted On Voyage” hit one million UK sales – a mere 11 months after its release, and there is no slowing down for the 22-year-old as he continues to mark a trail of sold out shows across the globe.
“Selling a million albums almost doesn’t feel real,” he told OfficialCharts.com.
“I don’t actually think I’ve ever seen a million of anything. Thank you so much to anyone who has bought the album and has enjoyed it.
“I always wanted to be thought of as an album artist so, with everything that’s happened, this means the most.”
”Wanted on Voyage” has since gone double platinum in the UK and both its lead singles, “Budapest” and “Blame It On Me”, charted in the top 10.
With over 2.5 million single sales, 105 million views on YouTube and over 235 million streams on Spotify, South African audiences will be treated to one of the biggest rising stars in music today when this massive talent hits our shores in August.
