LAURIE LEVINE - SATURDAY 29 AUGUST
I play folk music. I love everything music but I love the voice above
everything else.The voice that comes from a little place but en route
to the outside world becomes larger than anything else. I love the way
an instrument behind the voice makes music, and how sometimes, if you
are really on the mark, you can make something that soars above music...
but that takes time and a lot of love and is rare.

The Louise Day band are proud to announce that they will be recording
their first full length studio album with SA production legend Theo Crous

year and will undoubtedly showcase the band’s amazing musical talents thanks
to the incredible expertise of Theo Crous and his team.
