Roly Struckmeyer (Songwriter, Club Owner, Arapaho, Deluxe, Butternut & more!)

My very first guest is one of my dearest friends, singer/songwriter/guitarist/bassist Roly Struckmeyer.Having first met Roly when he ran the legendary and highly important Buzz Bar in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, during the 90s (where I saw all my first and most influential gigs), I went on to join him in the rhythm section for acclaimed Durban pop-rock band Deluxe.During that time, we played infinite covers gigs together and he taught me so much about being a musician and life in general (and still does). The bond formed during those years lasts to today, and it's safe to say he's arguably been the most important musical figure in my life, from running the venue that exposed me to live music to creating albums beloved around South Africa that we still look back on with pride.Please join us for an epic chat about the evolution of South African rock and Roly's place in that journey!FIND ROLY ONLINE:SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7epa7EpdsT6WWhQyJgnKXz?si=160486f5c9a64591FB: https://www.facebook.com/roly.struckmeyer/YOUTUBE: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_n2XTL1bTaqEHl7ra-c0rZ70AxHKZLkDuE&si=r3NjE99m08uvF3klFIND ME ONLINE:IG: @adamstanleydrumsE: [email protected]: https://www.adamstanleydrums.com Hosted on Acast.
