And they are SA’n - my first introduction to them was on the Mumford & Sons - Johannesburg EP
Beatenberg
I can’t get enough of their two albums, one very recent.
Brilliant band who should be out there making millions

Yes I saw them live at the Mumford & Sons concert in Cape Town a few years ago. Don't know their albums but will check them out later this evening.

Loved it, but I need the full orchestra version with Roberto Alagna as the lead singer and the Border Guards libretto.

Don't hold your breath for these guys to make millions Saff. I am a muso and although I only do the band thing as a hobby, I know quite a few musicians from some of the more "successful" SA rock bands. I'll tell you this much, even if you are a successful rock band in SA, it is almost impossible to make any money. In 2004 friends of mine had an SA number 1 song. They barely generated enough money from the accomplishment to record another album. If Beatenberg want to make millions, they need to leave SA.
Off topic a bit, but for any of you that have not seen it, watch the documentary Sugarman. You can thank me later. But in it you'll get a taste of how cruel record labels be to musicians. The documentary does leave out one or two details of what actually happened, for dramatic effect, but I can assure you, it is still very much a true story.

Blue I was indirectly implying they should leave SA in order to make it big like Seether have
