Arno Carstens

Arno Carstens is one of South Africa's most revered vocalists. He performed for 8 years as the lead singer of one of SA's most celebrated rock bands: The Springbok Nude Girls. He then worked as a solo artist after briefly starting a project band, New Porn. Their planned album was eventually released as a Carstens solo effort. Another Universe, released in September 2003 is a departure from Arno's typical sound, reflecting growth in musical interpretation whilst staying true to the honesty and power of his vocal ability. The album has been lauded in SA as a masterpiece.

Goodluck

It’s funny really, that a band with so much talent would be called GoodLuck. Because it’s not really luck that’s got these three musos to where they are – igniting South African night skies with their jazzing beats- it’s more like a blend of serious sums of talent, plenty of soul and a helluva lot of passion. And their next plan? Taking over the dance floors of the world! And they’re not far off.
