Join us to celebrate the 5th of July. We will begin the celebration with a lecture at 4pm and then a performance by Blk Jks at 6pm.

 

“. . . Blk Jks are the sound of a new South Africa. Indeed you'd be hard pushed to find a better example of the post-apartheid nation's new cultural momentum and boundary-breaking sensibility.

Four East Rand boys who defy convention by shunning the indigenous urban soundtrack of kwaito, Blk Jks make sense of their world with guitars, their leftfield dub-rock powered by an unmistakable 'heart of voodoo'.” –Jamie Hodgson in The Observer
