We Set Sail is a cinematic instrumental post-rock band from Cape Town, South Africa. Originally founded in 2006 by Marné Gelderbloem as an open-ended vehicle for artistic expression, the group grew organically and formally introduced their music to the South African circuit in 2009.

Today We Set Sail is a 5-piece band consisting of Marné on guitars, Richard Brunyee on keys and synth, Joao Luis Lanca Henriques on guitar, Breda Weise on drums and Lee Thomson on trumpet and flügelhorn. The band members come from musical backgrounds as diverse as jazz, classical, samba, metal, rock and punk and their writing process is a collaborative effort that results in a wholly unique sound.

The group's first album, Something About The Moon, was well received by the South African public in 2013 and lead to collaborative commercial efforts with Design Indaba, Sailor Jerry and Absolut Vodka, as well as a successful run on the local festival circuit (Synergy, Park Acoustics, Rocking the Daisies, Harvest Fest) and further afield (Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Namibia).

The group's second album, Animal, is set to be released on vinyl, CD and in digital format in April 2015. International fans can look forward to an extended European tour that will introduce We Set Sail's new streamlined electronic/rock offering in a series of live shows in Denmark, Germany and beyond. 

Going forward, We Set Sail looks forward to growing into the film industry, creating film scores and building on their reputation for innovative artistic expression alongside long-time visual collaborator Chris Slabber.
