Overtone Music is proud to announce that the Tristan Waterkeyn Trio has officially started a tour of the Western Cape of South Africa. During the next two months, the band will be promoting compositions from the album ?Hay Day?, with a newly arranged show that promises to captivate even the most skeptical of listeners. Covering Cape Town, Rondebosch, Muizenberg, Stellenbosch and Durbanville, the trio plans to create awareness of their ?not so conventional? musical approach before hitting the road nationwide in mid-August.

Through the combination of styles such as Pop, Funk and Bossa with splashes of Latin and Rock beats, the band is capable to adjust their performance to the most intimate venue or the rockiest music club. This power trio performs a compilation of smooth compositions, shown off at their best courtesy of the exquisite clarity of the production and the simplicity of its arrangements.

With years of expertise in the American music industry, producer & performer Jay Sandoval has assisted the band for the live performances of ?Hay Day? creating a more dynamic and up-beat approach in each song, trying yet to keep the original sound of the album in which participated musicians of the caliber of Tony Cox or Steve Newman.

Tristan Waterkeyn Trio has recently finished a 3 week residency at Zula Sound Bar, where bands like Mama Know Nothing, The Beams and Joshua Grierson were featured as opening acts. The band’s upcoming shows are:

Wed Jun 4th, Mercury Lounge (Zonnebloem)

Wed Jun 19th, Cafe Sofia (Rondebosch)
