Chris Chameleon is ready to take on the stages of some of Belgium and the Netherlands’ most renowned theaters. This is the third consecutive year that Chris has been invited back to perform in theaters across the Netherlands, a tour organized by Kik Productions (www.kikproductions.nl), and the first year that he makes his Belgian stage debut in a tour organized by Cultura vof (www.culturavof.be).

Of this year’s tour, Chris says “It’s exciting to still be able to present myself to so many new audiences after so many years in Europe. I haven’t been in most of these theaters and this is a good example of how large the scene in those countries is compared to what we enjoy in South Africa. Every year I add a few more skills to my bag of tricks and I can’t wait to let the monkey loose on the Dutch and Belgian audiences. They are a rather discerning bunch of theater-goers and generally I take their response as a good indicator of the effectiveness of my performance innovations.

Theater-goers also have two new album releases to look forward to:

In early 2009, Chris Chameleon released “Kyk Hoe Lyk Ons Nou” – a CD inspired by a documentary on Afrikaans speakers of which Chris was the presenter and narrator. Three years in the making, this 4-part documentary airs in November 2009 in South Africa. This year’s theater performances will feature popular tracks such as “Apie,” “Eiland,” and “Taal van die Liefde” amongst others.

And a special release is being printed specifically for this tour, titled “Chris Chameleon: Live at the Folkwoods Festival” which is a live recording by Dutch Radio broadcaster NOS, of Chris’ performance at the Folkwoods festival in 2007 in Eindhoven. Truly a unique and magical recording which captures Chris’ live spirit as well as popular live songs which are not featured on any of his solo releases. Only 3000 of these CDs will ever be printed so they are indeed a special and limited release.

2009 has been a phenomenal year for Chris Chameleon. Highlights include:

* A rock show tour in Europe.

* Award-winning sold-out performances at South Africa’s most prestigious festivals.

* Performed at the Mandela Day Concert as one of the South African representatives in Radio City Music Hall, New York City.

* A successful nation-wide tour with the large SAMA-award nominated production, Klassieke Chameleon.

* Performed at the 10th Anniversary of South Africa’s largest on-stage production, Huisgenoot Skouspel.

If there is one thing people know to expect from this exceptional artist, it is the unexpected. Do not miss Chris Chameleon as he blends his humour and passion with his melodies and vocal artwork.
