LUNA PAIGE & BAND @ DIE BOER, PERFORMING SONGS FROM HER LATEST ALBUM, WONDERFUL LIFE!

This independent artist is known as one of those South African gems that’s been working and performing on the periphery of the industry and slowly but surely stealing the hearts of SA music lovers. Music lovers have come to respect this artist over the last decade and have curiously been following her career, anxious to witness the moment this artist reaches her full potential. The moment has arrived: with the launch of Luna’s third and self-produced album – Wonderful life!

“Won’t be leaving you behind” has been play listed on numerous radio stations and climbed the charts on Bloemfontein’s OFM. Rock ballad “Addicted” was chosen as one of the tracks on Splashy Fen’s 20 year compilation album (which was released in May 2009). Luna’s activist song “New Love”, which acts as the theme song of her non-profit organization, the New Love Foundation – ensured her interviews on both SABC 2 (Artcha) and SABC 3 (The power within) for being an inspirational artist making a difference in her community. “Restless soul”, a beautiful rock ballad, charted on various campus radio stations and subsequently reached Nr 3 on MK 89 SA top 5 charts (Nov ’09). Further more, Luna’s interesting collaboration with Chris Chameleon in “Sunday in Japan” created much excitement. This song circulated on SA’s MP3.com. And last but not least – this album is host to a fun, tongue-in-the-cheek duet with blues man, Gerald Clark. This collaboration is especially appreciated by blues lovers (visit Luna’s Facebook page or website to view this music video).

What makes the live experience special is Luna’s talented and experienced band. Who are they?

Schalk Joubert creates the most beautiful atmospheric sounds with his bass guitar and adds tremendous value to the musical performances. Willem Moller is an amazing guitarist who plays with such ease and happiness: he steals the show without stealing the show. He has been around the block- making music for so many years. On drums is Kevin Gibson…an inspiration to many drummers. He is a drummer that listens to the singer, and who plays with sensitivity without loosing any balls at all! :)

This team will be performing songs from Luna’s new album. Come listen, experience and witness this versatile artist who can write and perform songs in various genres, and proved with this album that she is a songwriter to be reckoned with, that she grows and develops with every music project that she tackles and that independent artists can produce music of high quality and achieve success –perhaps at a slower rate – but nevertheless.
