Emo Adams, Koos Kombuis and Valiant Swart will take centre stage at the Solms-Delta Oesfees on Saturday 29 March 2025, joining a host of other musicians for a day of live music, food and wine in celebration of the grape harvest’s end.
Festival-goers can look forward to live performances until sunset while relaxing under the oak trees, sampling local cuisine and savouring Solms-Delta’s wines. Tommy Hall, CEO of Solms-Delta Wine Company, says the event which returned last year after a seven-year hiatus, is a vibrant fusion of music and culture and a platform to support both established and emerging artists. “The spirit of Oesfees is something truly special. When people with passion, talent and a shared purpose come together, they create more than just success—they create magic. And that’s exactly what happens at Oesfees.”
Emo Adams, known for his infectious energy and signature humour, was an institution during the early years of Oesfees and is guaranteed to get the crowd on their feet like brother Loukmaan and his band during last year’s festival.
Koos Kombuis and Valiant Swart join the line-up this time around along with sought-after lead-guitarist, Anton L’Amour who has for more than 30 years accompanied many of South Africa’s top musicians,.
Another new voice at the festival will be that of guest-artist, Luna Paige and beloved local bands, performing include Papier Family Band, Die Soetstemme, and Solms-Delta’s own Optelband, backed by renowned artists Nick Turner, Schalk Joubert and Carlo Fabe.
The audience can look forward to the soulful songs of Tribal Echo’s Frazer Barry who has been entertaining crowds for over 20 years and will once again serve as Oesfees MC. Another familiar face at the festival will be that of “Oom Hannes”, the Karoo guitar-man.
The ATKV has once again joined the ranks as a sponsor.
