Masha du Toit

As some of you may know, Brendon and I have a musical act called “Shower Songs”.  We do the kind of songs that we really love –  the ones that are great to sing in the shower.

They are all “cover versions” – but of everything from blues and pop to medieval songs and folk songs.  For some reason, a disproportionate number of them are about death.  Which is a problem when we get asked to play at a wedding :p.

I’ve uploaded a recording of one of our numbers.  Its a version of Bruce Springsteen’s State Trooper, which we did live on air for Bush Radio’s “Unhappy Hour” a couple of months ago.

Here it is – a bit rough around the edges, and the DJ added in some reverb here and there.  Sort of like aural equivalent of dry ice:

Testing, testing…

If you live somewhere close by (in Cape Town, that is) we love to give house concerts, usually with some other acts lined up as well.   And a special thanks to our friend Cathy Bremer who took these photos 🙂
