Yo Grapes is the indie-pop solo act of Craig Durrant, who also happens to be the drummer of local indie/ rock fellows Desmond and the Tutus. Craig has been creating, releasing and performing songs since 2011 and has since found a loyal following of fans in a whole bunch of different places. People seem to enjoy songs like ‘Holiday’, ‘December’ and ‘Human of the Week’ which are a combination of made up stories, true life events and other words that rhyme or sound nice in the moment. 

In 2016, Yo Grapes started to release the next wave of tracks with ‘I Play The Drums’ being the first single. The song got radio play on national and local stations across South Africa - if that means anything to you. The next single ‘Weekend Shy Boy’ was released in 2017.

In 2019, Yo Grapes is releasing a series of singles starting with 'Cool Around You' which will be out on 16.5.2019

Grassy Spark has always made it their mission to evolve outside of their comfort zone.

Their latest direction, as a newly-cemented 5 piece, is all about a fresh perspective while honing in on what Grassy Spark is all about. 

Essentially, Grassy Spark is more of an idea than simply a band or a genre and in many ways they’ve now become Genre Neutral, owing mostly to the multiple genres they’ve indulged in since formation in 2012.    

But their goal is to be fluid – to flow, adapt and find comfort in the ever-changing musical climate and current of being an artist.

A sound shaped by years of living between bustling cities and serene isolation, the music of Yellow House is a unique blend of stark reality and escapism.

As Van Gogh’s painting of the Yellow House contrasts bright shades of yellow with deep blue, so too does Yellow House’s work encapsulate the same moods of light and dark. These elements exist in parallel, yet always in harmony. Sombre, yet hopeful.

Yellow House juxtaposes the folk ideologies of reflective poetry with the ethereal nature of Dream Pop. Grounded by a rhythm section inspired by RnB and Hip Hop, these elements combine to create a distinct sonic spectrum.

The upcoming album, "Psalms of Yellow House," promises to build upon this ethos. More than a collection of songs, it is a culmination of a journey that is both artistic and deeply personal. The album stands as a testament to the relentless pursuit of meaning and beauty. It is an invitation to the listener to step inside the Yellow House and find solidarity in the shared human condition.
