The long-awaited return of Lefra Productions’ Country Legends and Friends to Carnival City’s Big Top Arena has been confirmed for October 4.<\/p>\n

The show kicks off at 8pm and brings together an unrivalled gathering of the legends of South African country music and a new generation of country singers, in one of the largest country shows ever.<\/p>

Building on the success of the previous Country Legends and Friends, legends such as Lance James, Barbara Ray, Clive Bruce, Sally Vaughn, Tommy Dell and Jody Wayne will be joined by their friends, superstar Juanita du Plessis, Jason Bradley, Chantell Williams and The Rodeo Girls, in an extravaganza that will establish these artists once again as legends and legends-to-be in the country music world.<\/p>\n

Frans Swart, producer of the Country Legends and Friends 2014 at Carnival City, as well as all the previous concerts, said he always knew that country music was still very popular in South Africa.<\/p>

“The American country legend Charley Pride once remarked that ‘it isn’t reasonable to expect that everyone in the world is a country music fan’, and added ‘Not yet, anyway’,” he added.<\/p>\n

“The runaway success of the previous Country Legends and Friends concerts proves that not only is country music still extremely popular, but its fan base is ever-growing.”<\/p>\n

Country Legends and Friends 2014 is going to put the country’s most popular country talent on show.<\/p>\n
