D7
D-seven is an all male a capella (voice only) music group. A Capella music has, for an exceptionally long period, suffered under the impression that it was a music genre lacking sex appeal, audience-accessibility and commercial viability, and perhaps a touch lame.
D-seven have just returned from a debut run at The National Arts Festival in Grahamstown, where they managed to secure a Standard Bank Ovation Award for being one of the top 36 shows in over 600 productions. Now they’ll be hitting the stage of On Broadway with the same gusto for your listening (and viewing) pleasure.
