Experience a musical journey at the beautiful La Roche Estate in Franschhoek where you’ll be enchanted by South African electric cellist Carol Thorns and her captivating music. Against a backdrop of picturesque mountains and vineyards, Carol Thorns will perform with her signature red electric cello while inside her luminescent bubble, creating a magical atmosphere for an open-air, picnic-style evening.
Carol Thorns has created a portfolio of original cello projects, known as Red Cello Productions, that have impressed audiences globally. Her innovative performances such as The Bubble, Rosanthorn Trio, CODA Africa, and The Galaxy Dress have led her to share the stage with music legends Vanessa Mae and Elton John. She has charmed audiences at prestigious events across South Africa, Europe, and the UAE with her compelling performances and is considered a pioneer in the electric string genre. Her album, Fireflies In The Rain, received a nomination for ‘Best Instrumental Album’ at the South African Music Awards (SAMA), and her latest release, Sanctuary, is available on all streaming platforms.
Cape {town} Etc is offering an all-inclusive sanity break package for two in the Cape Winelands at a discounted rate of R3199, which can be found here. Upon arrival at the La Roche Estate, guests will receive a free welcome drink and snack, setting the mood for a relaxed picnic experience. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own blankets, chairs, and extra snacks to ensure a comfortable and delightful evening. The event is family-friendly, with children encouraged to attend and enjoy the open air, explore the vast greenery, and take advantage of the complimentary kids’ entertainment available throughout the evening.
All proceeds from the event will be donated to support Country Kids Playschool in Franschhoek. Carol’s daughter, Emily, attended this school from age two to four, and it holds a special place in the musician’s heart. Carol shares, “I am performing for Country Kids because it is where our daughter, Emily, went to school from age two to four. It is where we made our wonderful friends who are still very much part of our lives today.” She continues, “The school gave Emily a supportive and caring foundation for future education. This is my way of acknowledging the power of connection, community, and kindness!”
