Formed in September 2014, Sayonara has embarked onto the SA music scene with a speedy yet calculated frenzy. This heavyweight quintet of rockers melded an eclectic array of old school rock music to synthesize the lording posture of sound that is the Sayōnara : Hard Rock and Roll.

Vocalist Shaun Van Niekerk packs a mean punch of the blues, gospel, and soul. Guitarists Divan Van Der Merwe and Derius Erasmus saws off memorable, toothy riffs, and isn't afraid to spray psychedelic aerials of tenor. Bassist Martin Jooste is "Old school meets today" bringing the "deep pocket" back to rock. And Drummer Wim Van Vuuren grounds and pounds deep grooves with flourishes of reckless abandon. 

And besides their musicianship, song writing is highlighted. Inspired by some of the greatest music spanning a century of genre and sound, Sayōnara get their point across in an economical and efficient way. They leave you wanting to rev up your '69 GTO with tunes like “Jump” and “Rise” and “It aint home.” Be on the lookout for their upcoming release early 2015

This audacious bunch are proving that they are ready to "bring it back home"...back to rock and roll, that is. Stand back. Get ready. And step aside for the swagger that IS Sayōnara. 

Drummer just laying down some solid beats to groove to. Enjoy the Metal and love to play fast. Keep it loud and change the world.
