InnisfreeLive at Rocklands, Constantia with Clare Vandeleur (Cello)

Dave Gardner (Innisfree) will be sharing a live set with cellist Clare Vandeleur in the beautiful greenhouse at Rocklands Health & Movement Centre in Constantia.

Innisfree is the tell tale of Dave Gardner. Weaving together poetry, Pastoral Folk and lush melodies that open up spaces for the audience to get lost and found in. Dave’s original compositions are difficult to place within one specific genre, but universal themes of belonging provide an opening for sincere contemplation. The gentle guitar rhythms roll the body along, offering a unique opportunity to drop into the vast soundscapes of the South African landscapes that Dave pays homage to in his songs.

Clare Vandeleur is a Johannesburg-based cellist and composer blending classical roots with ambient, exploratory playing. Clare has toured South Africa with Julian Redpath for the launch of his album ‘Maiden Light’, recorded on Nibs van der Spuy’s latest album ‘Maiden of the River’, contributed to Caroline Leisegang’s ‘Comes the Night’, and most recently recorded for Dave Gardner’s (Innisfree) upcoming album release, ‘Wherever You Go, You See Them’. The first single, ‘A View’ features Clare’s remarkable musicality.

Dave & Clare will perform a full set of their new music together.

Arrive from 18:30 to take a walk in the garden, swim in the natural pool, and settle into the space. The show starts at 19:00. Picnic blankets, camping chairs, cushions, snacks and non-alcoholic drinks are welcome. There is no food or beverages for sale. There is parking at the venue. The exact location will be shared upon the purchase of a ticket.

We look forward to sharing this experience with you!
