HOLOGRAPH (final performance)
This performance will mark the last show of Holograph in Cape Town for the foreseeable future. As the band members venture on to new paths, we come together to celebrate all things that were and are to be.
Warren Fisher began Holograph with a single song back in 2015. Little did Fisher know that 6 years later this project would eventually lead to the creation of a fully realised band, now consisting of Ines Soutschka, Desmond Kannameyer, Mitchell Davis, Joao Henriques, and Jess Barraclough.
Through the troubling time of lockdown in 2020, Fisher created over 20 new tracks with the help of his housemates and homies Kannemeyer and Soutschka. The three finished song after song, defying booze bans and curfews to write a collection of demos.

Since 2022 the full band has been playing live in and around Cape Town South Africa.
SUEÑOS
Sueños intends to be a deliverance into dream states, blurring duality between light & dark,
loud & quiet, consciousness & unconsciousness, the music a vehicle through which these
spheres can meet in reciprocal unison. As a collective from Cape Town, South Africa, Sueños
blends fuzz and reverb-soaked tones with intricate rhythmic textures, whilst incorporating
saxophone and a vivid lyrical approach exploring the depths of the human condition.
BEDBUDMAN (debut performance)
During the COVID-19 pandemic, an itchy bedbug was burrowing through the Muizenberg dunes. Sean Baron, of Runaway Nuns, Brickface and Doppelgang fame, began to envision a project in his home studio for all bedbugs everywhere. Starting in the last half of 2022, the best beetles have come out of the woodwork to make this dream a reality. On bass guitar and backing vox, Sihle Mkhize of Runaway Nuns, Tough Guy and Morena Leraba, brings the band’s thundering processional. Shapeshifting Charl Stemmet brings his meticulous rhythms to the skins as BEDBUGMAN’s drummer, known for his unforgettable work in The Valley and The Deathrettes. Christopher ‘Cobra’ Bolton of The Moths, Tough Guy and Brickface infamy, sprinkles in his potent guitar licks that scuttle alongside Sean Baron’s lyrical vocalisms and rhythm guitar. All caps when you write the man’s name - BEDBUGMAN. If garage rock n roll with psychedelic undertones is your thing, then I would suggest welcoming bites from these bedbugs.
