Cape Town Folk & Acoustic Music Festival | Yolanda Saayman Photography

I remember growing up with the sounds of Donovan, Joan Baez and Bob Dylan – listening to LP’s and 7-singles on a portable Phillips turntable – it took me to another world.

The 9th Cape Town Folk & Acoustic Music Festival which was held at the beautiful botanic gardens of Kirstenbosch, took me back to that world. One where it is all about the music, real heartfelt lyrics with good tunes. good vibes and great people.

I really love what Gavin Minter has managed to put together and absolutely mastered!

Bringing together some of the usual suspects like Albert Frost and The Blues Broers,
