*FEATURED MUSICIAN 6/11/11:
JAMIE JUPITER
The Fair’s featured
musician between 12h00 and 14h00 on the 6th is the popular and
talented Jamie Jupiter who performs solo as a mind-blowing one-man
band. By looping an impressive array of rootsy percussion and indigenous
instruments with guitar and bass, he creates a sound that is both modern and
authentic.
Jamie has toured the UK, USA and Canada, Reunion island and Germany
with “The African Music Workshop Ensemble”, played with the glam-rock sensation
“The Honeymoon Suites” in the 90's and won a
Fleur du Cap for best cabaret 2009 with the mock country show
"Angels on Horseback".
Come and listen to him stretch his musical muscles, from playing
traditional African music, delectable-dub, high-kicking gypsy grooves,
fun-filled disco-funk, to ecstatic techno tribal trance.
