“COUNTRY ROADS” PROUDLY PRESENTED BY THE MORNING After BAND

They say life is a journey and not a destination. This journey is made up of many

different roads that lead to many places along this journey of ours. Some lead to

friendship, some lead to happiness, some lead to love, while some lead to

heartache and pain. COUNTY ROADS looks to take you on a journey down a

couple of these roads through music and song by artists like Keith Urban, Don

Williams, Chris Stapleton, The Eagles, Willie Nelson, Josh Turner, Johnny Cash,

Billy Ray Cyrus and many more, while sharing with you the tales and adventures

of The Morning After band, a top-notch wedding, corporate and party band.

So let’s reflect on the good times, but remember to live in the moment.

The Morning After band featuring, Dirk Klut, Gerhard Oosthuizen and

Shannon Sutherland-Clark, was started in 2010 by long-time friends, Dirk

and Gerhard, when they recognized a huge need in the wedding market for a

professional live wedding band, headquartered in Johannesburg. Since then they

have travelled across southern and central Africa to not only perform at

weddings, but corporates and special events too.

Dirk Klut has been making music for more than 2 decades, teaching himself to

play guitar with Eric Clapton’s “Unplugged” album. Verse for verse and chorus

for chorus, he didn’t give up until he could play every song, which gives one a

tiny bit of insight into his work ethic, dedication and passion for music. When he

is not perfecting his fashion sense, Dirk is killing it on guitar and vocals in The

Morning After. He loves to travel, reading biographies and crafting guitars from

scratch.

Name an instrument and Gerhard Oosthuizen can play it, but in The Morning

After, he is both the occasional vocalist and the guy slapping the bass. G is

seasoned musician, who played for several popular South African acts before he

teamed up with his best friend and business partner, Dirk, to form The Morning

After. G takes care of the operational side of the band with the uncanny ability to

sort out and organise just about anything. He is also known for cracking a lot of

jokes (of the dad jokes variety), so when you hear his booming laughter, just go

with it!

Shannon Sutherland-Clark does not fit the unflattering stereotypes floating

around about drummers. He is always on time, he is a genius and drumming to

him is not just bashing around, it’s a pretty technical skill. Shannon is a SAMA

award-winning musician, an avid golfer (5 handicap), the band clown and a reallife equivalent of Bob the Builder.
