Lady Gaga

Whilst most people were cooing over "Lady Gaga" a few weekends ago a small group of people were gathered in the dirty streets in the center of Joburg to watch 3 live electronic acts (The Watermark High, Vampire9000 and A Skyline On Fire) do their thing in a small independant cinema called Bioscope.

Bands: The Watermark High

This is part of my catching up for the last 3 years!

The Watermark High are a 3 piece post-rock/ambient/electronica outfit consisting of members from "Dance, You're on Fire and The Ocean Doesn't Want Me. Here's a link to their Facebook page if you'd like some further info.

They're currently recording some new tracks as far as I know.

Anyway, these images are from their album launch "Loneliness as an Art-form". The first two attempts at the launch, in November 2009 at +27 Design Cafe, sadly didn't quite come to fruition as they both  got interrupted by rain, but they made up for that in March 2010 at Tings an' Times, jamming with Fulka (at what I believe was their first show). Check them out here.

Anyway, here are some snaps from both Watermark shows.
