\u201cRock is one of the most loved music genres around the world.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve combined legendary rock acts with some of the cutting edge new kids on the block for an unforgettable experience,\u201d said Nic Rush, a well-known musician who has played with the likes of South African stalwarts Prime Circle and Watershed.<\/p>
The Parlotones are one of South Africa\u2019s most prolific rock bands, winning several awards, achieving multi-platinum album selling status and packing out venues for live concerts from the very beginning.<\/p>\n
After notching up six studio albums, several chart-topping singles, a string of awards and countless sold-out gigs, Prime Circle have earned their status as South African rock royalty.<\/p>\n
Formed in Witbank, Mpumalanga, in 2001, the band has demonstrated true staying power with a dynamic signature sound that continues to evolve in exciting, progressive directions.<\/p>\n
CrashCarBurn has carved a niche in the music industry with their powerful rock anthems over the last decade.<\/p>\n
The band was born in 2006 after brothers Garth and Brendan Barnes put their incredibly successful punk rock band, Tweak, to bed and quickly united loyal fans and a new fan base that was equally drawn in by the crisp new sound that instantly won them validation.<\/p>\n
Alternative rock band, The Sweet Resistance, burst onto the local music scene with the launch of its debut album, Where there is Hope, at two sold-out Cape Town shows in 2016.<\/p>\n Since their launch, the likes of 5FM, Mix FM, MFM, PukFM and Kovsie FM and more have all chosen to playlist the band\u2019s debut single Feel.<\/p>\n 5FM rated the track as SA\u2019s hottest track in its first week of release.<\/p>\n Dirty Moonshine delivers loud and raw rock \u2019n roll with dirty soul, sexy vocals, cutting leads, sweet slides and reverberating bass.<\/p>\n Rumbling and thundering from the Gauteng Highveld, Dirty Moonshine has taken their own unique brand of rock \u2019n roll across the country, with a view to turning every single venue upside down.<\/p>\n In two whirlwind years, Newtown Knife Gang have secured themselves a record deal with Electromode alongside top SA artists such as Jack Parow and Die Heuwels Fantasties, their singles Read Between the Lines and Listen have enjoyed high rotation on more than 25 national stations.<\/p>\n The band has established themselves in a notoriously \u201ctough to crack\u201d live scene, playing coveted slots at major festivals and top venues across the country.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ALSO READ:<\/span><\/p>\n Quads, motorcycles to end 1 000km journey at Carnival City<\/a><\/p>\n Great music to entertain you<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n With all three previous full-length albums nominated for South African Music Awards and producing classic hits like Lonely lonely Sunday morning, You don\u2019t get to quit, The Banded, God bless the narrow and many more, The Narrow is one of South Africa\u2019s most exciting live acts.<\/p>\n \u201cEnd October on a high note with some of the very best rock bands that South Africa has to offer.<\/p>\n \u201cFrom legendary bands like The Parlotones and Prime Circle to some of the biggest names in rock music right now, Rocktober Rumble has it all.<\/p>\n \u201cDo not miss this rocking show.<\/p>\n \u201cWho knows when we will be able to pin down these artists for a collaborative show like this again,\u201d said Michelle Smith, marketing manager for Carnival City.<\/p>\n For a rocking good time, don\u2019t miss The Rocktober Rumble at Carnival City\u2019s Big Top Arena at 4pm.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Have a story?<\/strong><\/p>\n Contact the newsroom by emailing: Melissa Hart (Editor)\u00a0<\/span>germistoncitynews@caxton.co.za<\/a><\/strong> or Leigh Hodgson (journalist)\u00a0<\/span>leighh@caxton.co.za.<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Remember to visit the Germiston City News on the following social media platforms:<\/p>\n Facebook<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Twitter<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Instagram<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n YouTube\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Or add the GCN on\u00a0<\/b><\/span>WhatsApp 079 406 1181<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>or\u00a0BBM (BBM Pin: 7F102137)<\/strong>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>today, to get all the latest news.<\/p>\n Catch-up on more local news with our sister newspapers\u00a0<\/span>Bedfordview Edenvale News<\/a><\/strong>,\u00a0<\/span>Alberton Record<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span>Kempton Express<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/germistoncitynews.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2017\/09\/39GCNENTERTAINMEN_20394-520x390.jpg\")
