WATCH: New high notes for Krugersdorp band

Meet Headline, a local band that is set to release their very first single in 2025.

From rock to Afrikaans, the Krugersdorp band, Headline, shared their story, history and recent successes.

Drummer Wouter Maritz said the band consists of himself, Celeste Nel (vocals), Michael Wickham (guitar) and JP Fourie (bass).

He told the News the band had a complicated start when it first got together in 2018 with members coming and going not to mention Covid having a huge impact too.

Wouter added their genres cover a bit of everything and they are currently in the studio, recording their very first single, For you, which they are planning to release in January.

“We have around 65 original songs where we are planning to record them and release them on our first album set to be released in May,” Wouter excitedly said.

He continued that when they released a video on social media, it received almost 45 000 views and claimed the video put them on the map, where they have to jam about twice a week to remain in sync.

“Although we play a variety of genres, we do not want to get associated with a single one yet, and still want to experiment with all of them,” he expressed.

“We want to stay busy with music, although we’re a bit tired of loading a trailer full of equipment,” Wouter jokingly said.

He concluded that they are very thankful for everyone who supports them and their passion for music.
