Here’s a cover of a hit by Midnight Oil, an Aussie band, from their 1987 album Diesel & Dust.

“Beds Are Burning” criticises how populations were often removed from their lands, highlighted by the pre-chorus lines “it belongs to them, let’s give it back”, a theme that resonates strongly in post-apartheid South Africa.

We played this at the Koeberg Club near Melkbosstrand, Cape Town, on 31 October 2026. The Koeberg Club is a great live music venue for duos and solo artists. The menu is great, and the food is awesome. They have some real talent in the kitchen. Table service is top-class and very friendly. Vicky, the owner, knows all the regulars, and the cosy pub is very inviting.

Be sure to catch us at our next gig, or book us for your private party.
