Purplecry Biography:


"PurpleCry is a Cape Town based musical duo which explores genres of music ranging from alternative to progressive and acoustic rock. Licia Du Plessis and Marcel van der Westhuizen, who both have obtained a formal music education, form the acoustic and dynamic duo that is PurpleCry. Initially the group began as a solo-project of Licia’s between 2011 and 2012, but after experimenting and working with various session musicians Licia recruited Marcel in 2012 as a permanent member of the group, ergo, her musical partner.
 
As the group consists only of two members, Licia and Marcel use special intricate musical techniques in order to create a fuller sound during their performances. Licia performs as the percussionist, drummer and vocalist, while Marcel performs with an acoustic and electric guitar and contributes to the vocal aspect of the group as well. The group also uses their impressive selection of guitar pedals in order to use bass amplifying and loop techniques.
 
Through their diverse influence of music from artists such as Radiohead, Damien Rice, Paramore, and John Mayer, PurpleCry creates a unique, emotionally sincere, and versatile acoustic sound. Licia and Marcel describe their music as, “Dynamic, super sensitive or chilled, and very emotional. Sometimes also quite loud. "We’re pretty depressing, but we want to be real. We don’t want to pretend that sadness and heartache doesn’t exist. We want to show how music can help anyone get through a tough situation.”
 
Through their dual writing skills and specific selected music, PurpleCry performs exclusive original music and cover songs that allow an audience to embark on an emotional journey. Their music pays homage to the true acoustic rock roots of music’s history and therefore after each performance PurpleCry leaves its audience with feelings of content and inspiration."
