Guitar icons Patlansky and Buttery unite for rare KZN tour
Guitar legends Dan Patlansky and Guy Buttery will share the stage in KZN for three nights in September. TWO of South Africa's most accomplished guitarists are coming together for a limited run of shows in KwaZulu-Natal next month, in what promises to be a once-in-a-generation musical meeting. Dan Patlansky and Guy Buttery, both household names across the world, will share the stage for three nights only, delivering a collaborative performance that blends Patlansky's raw blues-rock energy with Buttery's genre-defying finesse. The pair first crossed paths as 'two young guitar nerds' at a music festival in their twenties. Fourteen years later, they're hitting the road together, unveiling new material, reworking old favourites, and exploring spontaneous musical territory live on stage. Patlansky, known for his searing guitar tone and soulful vocals, has 11 studio albums to his name and is recognised internationally. He's twice topped the Blues Rock Review USA charts and recently landed the #3 spot for Blues Rock Album of the Year with 2024's Movin' On. Buttery, a multi-instrumentalist with a unique sound, has been called a 'national treasure.' Buttery has toured more than 10 countries and has collaborated with other legends like Dave Matthews, Salif Keita, and Vusi Mahlasela. With every show selling out quickly, the KZN leg is expected to follow suit. Patlansky and Buttery will perform in KZN from 5-7 September. On 6 September they will be at the Seabrooke's Theatre, Berea, on 6 September at the Lyric Lounge, Ballito and on 07 September the show takes place at the Old Mushroom Farm, are limited and once they're gone, they're gone.
