It was a great Friday on the 26th of June, when I spent my day with the Gold Fish band. The group is made up of Dominic Peters, David Poole and Sakhile Moleshe. Gold Fish is one of the hottest and highly recommended bands in their mother land, Cape Town in South Africa. The group came together while they were doing their music studies at University of Cape Town.
Some people take the arts for granted but if you follow the Gold Fish story you will realize that art is the most powerful tool for education.
Dave graduated with a master’s degree and Dominic holds a bachelor’s degree while young Sakhile has a bachelor in music. “Its good to be educated so that you can enjoy the fruits” said Dave
The group has some shows lined up for the coming months. Most of their shows are now fully booked.” My dream has come true; I can’t imagine that I am recognized throughout the world. We are hard workers and now we are getting ready to tour the US, Brazil and then a four month stint in Ibiza and Europe. It’s going to be awesome,” said Sakhile.
Combining live instruments like Double bass, Saxophones, Keyboards, Flute, and Vocals with Samplers, Effects, Synthesis and a healthy dollop of freeform improvisation, Gold Fish have hit a nerve on dance floors across the world.
