Main stage
American rock band Wheatus will be making their debut in South Africa, along with musical magician Youngr from England and one-man band from Australia Kim Churchill. With a well-planned mix of eclectic folk jazz, electro pop melodies and good old American punk rock, it’s a line-up that has something for everyone. And we’re only just getting started!
With just over two months to go until the 30th edition of South Africa’s friendliest festival kicks off in the beautiful rolling hills of Underberg, preparations are well under way for another fun-filled experience for one and all.
Also set to entertain fans on the Splashy Fen Main Stage is Australian-born Juzzie Smith and a host of South African favourites such as Jeremy Loops, Mi Casa, Goodluck, Hot Water, Shortstraw, Desmond & The Tutus and Wonderboom.
While Splashy Fen is now attracting big international names, the festival will continue to focus on partnering with KZN and SA artists at every opportunity.
Headliner artists
Wheatus – With a debut album that’s more than 17 years old, the well-known rock band from America has become synonymous with their timeless hits Teenage Dirtbag and A Little Respect. Easy lyrics, beats you can bop, mosh and dance to and a typically larger than life on-stage presence, they’re one to look out for at this year’s Splashy Fen Music Festival.
Jeremy Loops – From cult live act status in his hometown Cape Town, to a chart-topping album domestically, and a number of world tours; Jeremy Loops is nothing short of a world-class international artist. And he’ll be back at Splashy Fen this year, with his foot-stomping, beat boxing, looping antics… and fans can’t wait.
Kim Churchill – Intricate guitar work, intuitive vocal melodies and a wonderful feeling of space and warmth… this is what Splashy Fenners can expect from Australian born Kim Churchill. The 26-year-old singer-songwriter once spent 18 months working on an album, only to scrap it moments before it was due for release. His reasoning? It “didn’t feel right”.
So, Churchill picked up his guitar and wrote a second version of the album in one frenetic week. He then spent two months piecing together the new recordings with his producer in a garage in Western Sydney. The results? The ‘Weight_Falls’ album – a kaleidoscopic collection that is bound to take both fans and critics by surprise.
