Beukes & Delaney
Western Cape
This Johannesburg based band performs an eclectic mix of original Folk/Irish/Rock. For a lack of a better word they refer to their unique style as “Irish-Boereblues!”
Singer/songwriter, Christoff Beukes, plays acoustic Guitar, Harmonica and does the Lead Vocal duties in this exciting duo.
David Delaney, is an Irishman, that has been calling South Africa home, for the last 2 years. He grew up learning his craft playing in the pubs of Waterford, where he was born. He plays the Fiddle; a traditional Irish flute called the Low Whistle, Mandolin and does Backing Vocals.
Apart from the interesting mix of acoustic instruments, it is the beautiful blend of vocal harmonies that keeps audiences transfixed.
The band is rounded off by Brendon van Rooyen on drums and Cesare Cassarino on bass.
