JUST Jinjer, one of South Africa’s most celebrated bands, is set to headline the second Old Mutual Music at the Lake Concert at the Durban Botanic Gardens on Sunday 16 March. Acoustic duo, The Kickstands, is the supporting act.
Just Jinjer’s polished performances have garnered them local and international fans. They have shared the stage with massive international acts, such as Corinne Bailey Rae, Ludacris and Angelique Kidjo. The band is currently recording their ninth studio album.
“I’m so excited about performing at the gardens again. We have some great new material and of course all the favourites. I’m from Durban, so I’m very excited to perform at one of my favourite venues,” said Ard Matthews, the band’s front man.
Accompanying Just Jinjer is the Durban-born and acoustic duo, The Kickstands. The band’s achievements include playing on large stages such as Splashy Fen, Durban Day and the FIFA World Cup. This dynamic, versatile and zealous duo has gained major popularity.
