NicoG was born on 17 March 1975, soon after adopted by South African parents; and grew up in Kempton Park (near Johannesburg). He is an inspiring musician whose music career began at an early age as he performed on stages around South Africa.

Early Success
At the age of 8 years, he performed as the lead singer, choreographer and songwriter for the 80’s mega-hit South African child pop band “Kids on the Block” (not to be confused with the 90’s USA band “New Kids on the Block”) which peaked after 8 years. Working under the then front name of “Sandy” with this child band, Nico has had multiple hit singles and chart-topping albums behind him.

After its initial workshop-run in The Fringe at the Joburg Theatre in 2010, Cinema Wow had a make-over and was taken to the National Arts Festival in Grahamstown where this extended version got rave reviews and numerous requests to return to Joburg.

Nadia Beukes, Elizma Badenhorst and Nacia Kruger started The Dahlings about 3 years ago and have been at it ever since.

As the name Couch explains, this band is about being down to earth and non pretentious. This does't mean low in energy as the band's music ranges from soft acoustic ballads to rough and dirty blues riffs. Combined experience of four different member from different genres gives this band a unique sound and feel. Even though this band is relatively new, all the members have been involved in the music industries for some time.
