The members have been performing in the music industry both professionally and semi-professionally for over 30 years. The band strives to deliver each song as close to the original as possible, while making them their own. They have a small selection of their own material too.
9.00pm – THE WICK KIDS
The Wick Kids is an alternative folk trio hailing from the ever so small town of Howick. Made up of members all attending different universities, The Wick Kids’ claim to fame is their seasonality, meaning they only gather in season (The University holidays), a few times a year to fuse their musical talents. The first member of the band and Bass player, Jonathan Copeland, is a Computer Science student in Pretoria who spends all of his free time slapping bass and coding. Thomas Bull, the second addition and the main vocalist for the Wick Kids can only ever be found in three places: in the ocean surfing, performing with The Wick Kids, or lying on his bed. And Finally, Josh Bull, brother of Tom Bull, and guitarist and vocalist for The Wick Kids, is an obsessive-compulsive noodler who plays frantically in the hopes he will one day improve.
With their musical influences ranging from Passenger, to Ed Sheeran, to John Mayer, The Wick Kids bring a new viby take the on the stale title that is ‘alternative folk’. All in all, The Wick Kids provide an all-round entertaining act fusing their interesting personalities with their love for music.
