Stealing Love Jones and Ard Matthews live at the Cape Farmhouse in Scarborough: 26 December 2009

Here’s a good option if you’re looking for something to do on Boxing Day. Stealing Love Jones and Ard Matthews from Just Jinjer will be rocking out at the Cape Farmhouse on Saturday 26 December 2009. Situated 3km from Scarborough at the bottom of Red Hill, the Cape Farmhouse is a great venue and plays host to a series of outdoor concerts in summer.

Here’s what these two top South African acts have been up to lately:

Stealing Love Jones are taking a break from making it big in the USA to rock their South African fans throughout December. Since moving to San Diego in August to try a new venture in the Los Angeles music scene, Esjay and her new boys (Daniel Kurts – drums, Christian Rush Williams – guitar, Rowdy Bossard – bass) have opened for Sprung Monkey and ‘Rockstar: Supernova’ heroine Dilana and seen their song ‘Don’t Blame Britney’ nominated for a Hollywood Music Award.

During the same short three months, the singles ‘Hospital’ and ‘Dont Blame Britney’, from the ‘Bleed Too Bloom’ album, have been play listed on San Diego radio station 94.9, mirroring the rapid rise Stealing Love Jones made in South Africa.

Global Ambassador for South Africa’s MyLife Foundation, recording artist Ard Matthews launched his first charitable contribution ‘First Offerings’ through www.ardmatthews.com. Having written, covered and performed hits such as ‘Shallow Waters’, ‘Like U Madly’, ‘What He Means’, ‘Sugarman’ and ‘Here’s to you’, Ard is regarded as one of the most industrious and talented artists in South African history. Ard and his band have successfully sold two double platinum records, three gold records, had six number one hits and ten top ten singles.

Tickets for the concert on 26 December 2009 are R70 at the door or R50 at the door for students with a valid student card. For bookings phone (021) 780 1246. The gates open at 13h30 and the show starts around 15h30. There will be food on sale and a cash bar at the venue.
