Durban The Best Of Swing - Platform Jazz


 What is Swing? Not only is it a music genre made popular in the 1920's through to the 1940's but it depicts a certain musical groove and feel and also a sophisticated and classy fashion style. Platform Jazz is set to bring you that groove and their show at the Rhumbelow next year will feature the best of their Swing numbers from their past 4 shows. “The Best of Swing” will include Swing favourites from early 20’s, 30’s and 40’s through to pop numbers given a swing flair.   

 The band will perform crowd pleasers such as Mack the knife, Hello Dolly, In the Mood, When the saints go marching in, All about that Bass, My Favourite Things, Big Spender to name a few and they are all guaranteed to be crowd pleasers. The line-up includes Andreas Kappen on double bass, Bruce Baker on drums, the inimitable Melvin Peters on the keys, Cathy Peacock on trumpet, Kirsten Sayers on clarinet, Jeff Judge on the sax and vocals, Duncan Wooldridge on slide trombone and Shelley McLean adds her gorgeous style as lead vocalist.   Ladies don your pearls and fascinators, gents your scarves and spats and relive the era of glamour and big band magic with Platform Jazz and “The Best of Swing”.

Real SHISANYAMA @ Classique Braai Lounge in Hillcrest Residents and visitors of the Durban Upper Highway will have a good reason to meet for juicy braai meat and delicious African cuisine, in an upmarket setting. Classique Braai Lounge is a concept born out of passion for good food and a warm social vibe. It is well positioned between Durban and PMB for business people to come and network in relaxed yet conjusive environment. Entrepreneurs and residents of Hillcrest; Langa Sithole (47), and Sandile Dlamini (36), saw a gap for a braai lounge within easy reach, in a premium setting.  “This will be an establishment where one can enjoy good food and pleasant ambience. Dwellers of our arrear normally travel over 50 kilometers to get the taste that tickles their fancy. So we decided to bring it closer to home,” says Sandile. “We also are targeting that exclusive market, with a good ear for crisp, timeless, South African and jazz music. Offering good food won’t be com...

Top Durban Coffee Spots Here is a selection of the best service and quality as said by you .. The Locals !  Colombo Coffee – Durban North A long standing favourite in Durban, The Factory Cafe recently moved their premises to Durban North and consolidated their name to Colombo Coffee. Roasted on site, Colombo Coffee is one of the top specialty coffees in KZN. The coffee shop rotates through their unique blends, namely Aggressive Chocolate, Fedora Classic, and their Sweet & Clean blend. They have also introduced a delicious Summer blend and they sell a number of incredible, top quality single origin coffees. The new shop can be found on Kensington Drive in Durban North and they have a display full of yummy chocolate brownies, cakes, and muffins.
