The Man Motels (a three piece Cape Town based rock band) was one of the bands who played at Halloween 2023 in Pretoria (in October 2023).
Dune Rats (Australia), Sunflowers (Portugal), Die Heuwels Fantasties, Van Pletzen, December Streets, Painted Flowers and Zebra also played at the event (which was hosted at Loftus Park Centre in Pretoria) on the day that the Springboks won their 4th Rugby World Cup title in Franc (the 28th of October 2023).
I snapped this photo of Garrith Holloway (the lead guitarist and vocalist of The Man Motels) at the event and it has been selected as the Photo Of The Week on SA Music Zone.

With influences ranging from the Pixies and Nirvana to Brand New, these boytjies are anything but tame. Members Garrith, Pierre and Lyle complete the trio’s explosive line-up emanating pure grit, power and attitude with primary focus on maximum energy live, and maximum authenticity on record. A strategy that’s paid dividends for the trio in recent years.
