American soul supremos Peaches & Herb will wow Cape Town early this May.
The Sweethearts of Soul, as they are known, are set to perform on Saturday 4 May at Grand West Casino outside Cape Town.
Hot new concert promoter Lifestyle Events International has brought the hit-makers to Cape Town for an historic, once off concert.
Thanks to Lifestyle Events International, young and not-so-young Capetonians alike can look forward to a unique performance featuring the duo’s latest and greatest hits: Reunited, Let’s Fall in Love, Close your Eyes, For Your Love, Love is Strange and Shake Your Groove Thing.
Peaches & Herb began its meteoric rise in 1976 when Let’s Fall in Love hit the charts.
After that followed a steady succession of hits. Reunited attained the no 1 slot worldwide in 1980 and has become known as the duo’s signature song; but other, equally successful hits followed.
Reunited’s success was followed a year later by the dazzlingly successful album I Pledge My Love, which has gained favour as a wedding march. The duo cemented their success the following year when they stormed the hit parade with Bluer than Blue.
Strong & smooth Herb and the rather peachy Peaches will ignite the stage of GrandWest with his brandy-and-cream voice and her velvet tones.
Wanda Tolson is the latest in a series of illustrious female performers to take to the stage as Herb’s singing partner Peaches.
Boasting an independent singing career that is as successful as that of her 6 predecessors, the current Peaches also introduces a fresh, sexy quality to the duo.
For Herb in particular, this latest concert will be special. The veteran crooner gets to conquer a whole new city and a whole new populace, in a country he has not visited before.
The concert will be held in the Arena of GrandWest, which for the duration of this night will be transformed into an intimate stage for one of the world’s most unforgettable duos – one that after 40 years in the spotlight can still shake their groove thing.
The Peaches & Herb concert takes place on Saturday 4 May at 8.30 pm in the Arena of Grand West. Tickets from R230. Tickets are available from Computicket.
