Newton’s 2nd Law confirmed to support Rodriguez on SA Tour


Big Concerts confirmed today that Newton’s 2nd Law will open for Rodriguez on his 9 date South African tour this February. The tour will be produced by Big Concerts, and presented by Talk Radio 702, 567 CapeTalk and M-Net.

The Gauteng-based band, who recently signed with Sony Music, released their debut album “N2L” in late 2012. The first single ‘Fact of Life’ peaked at #8 on the 5FM Top 40 and became a chart topper on campus stations like Kovsie FM, TUKS FM and MFM.  With over 10,000 Youtube streams since its release, ‘Fact of Life’ continues to make an impact on regional radio as well. Similarly, the second single ‘Imaginary World’ impacted positively at radio late last year. The video for the current single ‘Need You To Stay is viewable online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlzZ6pB4vy0  

The five friends who make up the band pride themselves on the interesting sound they create through a mixture of genres such as rock, folk, soul and dub.

Recently nominated for an Oscar, ‘Searching for Sugar Man’ was a big hit at last year’s Sundance Film Festival where it won the world documentary audience award and a special jury award. It also received fantastic reviews at this year’s SXSW, Tribeca film festival, Sydney film festival and several others around the world. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to see the  iconic Rodriguez live in South Africa performing  his classic hits in support of ‘Searching for Sugarman’.
