Two margaritas and one flash tattoo deep, I pull up to District lus for a little boogie. A line-up dripping with nostalgia brings out the lesser-spotted middle-aged Capetonian who likes to talk about the good ol’ days of MK and still remembers the Jam Alley theme song. Nomadic Orchestra set the tone through resonant brass and bounce. The funkiest fivesome. The premiere party princes. And through it all they remain impeccably consistent. I celebrate with a tequila. Daddy don’t disco but mama still likes to rock the hell out. Ask any of the MILFs there for The Dirty Skirts. A near-fatal infection almost took Maurice out a few months ago? Talk trash. The man’s giving peak performance. Their bassist but also their backbone. I celebrate with a tequila, clearly on my own stellar bender. Southern Wild return triumphant, flanked by a new figure in guitarist Conrad Birch. But led at helm by Dave van Vuuren and his emotional intensity. Lock eyes with him mid-song at your own peril. Man will speak to your soul and have you believing we really don’t get out alive. I celebrate with an… uber home because I’m responsible like that. Or am I? Link in bio for the full gallery 🔗

Brass, groove and chaos.... the good kind 🎺🔥; @nomadicorchestra Orchestra is bringing their high-energy, genre-defying sound to 19th edition of the MTN Bushfire festival and your feet won’t know what hit them. Hip hop, Balkan, afrobeat, ska and klezmer, all of it, with none of the rules. This Cape Town brass collective has been turning festivals into dancefloors for years. Five musicians, three albums and one mission, get every single person in the crowd moving. And trust us, they always deliver. No genre loyalty, no sitting still, just pure infectious energy from start to finish; see you on the dancefloor🕺! 📅 29 May - 31 May 2026 🎟️ /tickets/ 🇸🇿 MoMo: bit.ly/MoMoMarketPlace 📍 @houseonfire_ , Eswatini #MTNBUSHFIRE2026 #NomadicOrchestra

If you’re in Plett on 2 May, there is only one place you should be. The Plett Wine & Bubbly Festival is being hosted by our sister property, @kayandmonty , and it’s looking like a proper vibe. Think local winemakers, restaurants and more.  For our locals and neighbours, it’s the perfect Saturday out in The Crags. For those travelling from out of town, consider us your home base. We’re just a short drive away, making The Old Rectory the ideal spot to crash once the sun goes down. Tickets are R465 (purchase via the link in @kayandmonty ’s bio) and include: a branded glass, 10 complimentary tastings, exclusive discounts on wine purchased at the event, and a full day of live music with the very awesome @nomadicorchestra headlining from 4pm.  Keep an eye on exciting updates on @kayandmonty ’s Insta page. See you there. 🥂 📸 @boogsgaga #PlettItsAFeeling #PWBF2026

We take celebration seriously at Reforest Fest, and the weekend's lineup of musicians, DJs and fireside jam sessions was a true testament to this! We loved grooving under the stars with all of you. 💚 "I don't think I've ever felt safer, more connected, or more South African - it gives a month's worth of joy in a weekend..." - Reforest Fest 2026 attendee A special thank you to @bothners_music and @capeaudiocollege for helping us bring a world-class sound experience to the event. 📸: @jandregrobler10 , @sharileet , @kamielah_d_visuals #Greenpop #Treevolution #RFF26 #ReforestFest

We knew that celebrating 20 Years of Wine of Origin Plettenberg Bay at the 2026 Plett Wine & Bubbly Festival called for a big vibe. And who better to bring it than @nomadicorchestra (swipe to see what we mean) 🥳 On the 2nd on May, wine tastings will be available from 1 pm to 4 pm, with live music throughout the day. From 4 pm on onwards, Nomadic Orchestra will take the stage with wine available to purchase. We can’t wait to share a glass (or two) with you soon! If you haven’t got your tickets yet, be sure to grab them via the link in our bio. #plettitsafeeling #pwbf2026

*Early Bird tickets now available - https://qkt.io/hJaQZG 👆bio Get ready for a night that feels like a homecoming for Cape Town’s Rock and Roll Soul. On Saturday 9 May 2026, District plays host to three of South Africa’s most honest and formidable live acts in The Dirty Skirts, Nomadic Orchestra, and Southern Wild. There are no gimmicks here, just the raw, foot stomping power of bands that have spent years cutting their teeth in smoky clubs and commanding the main stages of every major festival in the country. You’ve got the grit and veteran swagger of The Dirty Skirts, whose Indie Rock anthems are woven into the very fabric of the local scene, paired with the brass-heavy, runaway train energy that is Nomadic Orchestra. Rounding it out is the deep, soulful howl of Southern Wild, a band that brings a level of vulnerability and fire rarely seen on a stage. This is a rare chance to catch these three incredible acts together on the same stage, in the heart of the CBD, reminding us exactly why they’ve remained the lifeblood of South African live music for so long.
