CONF8 is back to perform at Die Boer after their previous sold out performance – it is strongly advisable to book your ticket soonest. This group hasn't even seen their first anniversary yet, but they have already managed to secure international sponsorship with Cape Classic's Jam Jar, and have performed live on national radio. Their name is a phonetic play on the English word for jam: "konfyt". This means that the name reads in English but sounds Afrikaans - true to the character of our South African rainbow nation.
With their fresh approach to the guaranteed recipe of success when it comes to pleasing South African audiences, CONF8 is daringly different yet easy to listen to. Their show will tickle, shock, sooth and rock the fancy of Afrikaans and English audiences alike. The program consists of original music as well as tried and trusted popular songs in Afrikaans, English and African languages, and is a showcase of true talent by dedicated artists. Lead singer Hilandi du Toit is already known for her intimate and honest interaction with audiences - now she is also backed by an undeniably groovy group of musicians.

Hilandi du Toit
Spore langsaan my
Ons land se hartsnare is passievol gepluk toe Hilandi du Toit haar kitaar opgetel het tydens ZAMAR optredes, Boheem (saam met Anna Davel) en Altyd Jonker (KKNK opdrag produksie). Oefen jou sintuie en spoorsny jou weg oop na heirdie geselligheid! Hilandi du Toit maak haar debuut as solokunsternaar en stel haaf CD, "Spore Langsaan my" bekend in 'n produksie van woord en akkoord. Verlange gaan rock en die liefde gaan skreeu tot dit nostalgies dobber onder in jou hart.
Resensie
"Hilandi du Toit betower 'n gehoor met haar sjikalade stem", so' het 'n joernalis van Die Burger 2006 geskryf nadat hy haar hoor sing tydens 'n Zamar vertoning.
Sy maak nie net graag musiek nie, maar skryf veral Afrikaanse gedigte waarvan sy toonset of gebruik as prosa voordrag tydens haar vertonings. Sy heet 'n groot bewondering vir "haar" taal, Afrikaans en waardeer die voorgangers wat hul spore diep genoeg getrap het sodat sy ook daarin mag volg.
Hilandi se debuut album, 'Spore Laangsaan my' beloof om, met 'n vars aanslang, Suid-Afrikaanse gehore se harte steel.
