Her tour includes performances in KwaZulu-Natal &#8211; a first in many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Singer-songwriter and storyteller Luna Paige brings music lovers a collection of songs that celebrate the comprehensive nature of love. In&nbsp;<em>Oceanic Heart<\/em>, Luna Paige sings about romantic love, love between friends and family, and the deep connection between humans and their animals. She sings about the love of nature, travel, and most importantly &#8211; self-love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides performing her original material, Luna Paige has selected songs by songwriters who have written about their own siblings, four-legged friends, their love of music, and the long and winding road. This includes songs by artists such as Neil Young, Nick Cave, Carole King, Norah Jones, Janis Joplin, and more. Luna will perform her own versions of these popular songs during the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luna is no stranger to discerning music lovers in South Africa. She is known for her exemplary songwriting and her powerful voice. She accompanies herself on an electric piano and acoustic guitar. Luna Paige performs songs in both Afrikaans and English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She has released five English albums, two Afrikaans albums, one SAMA-nominated collaborative album, and multiple singles since 2003. In October and November 2024, she toured nationally with her&nbsp;<em>Tuiskoms\/Coming Home<\/em>&nbsp;Tour after spending three exhilarating months in Europe, which included intimate performances in the Netherlands. In October, she will tour the Netherlands with a brand-new production by the name of&nbsp;<em>Dreamland<\/em>. Before then, join Luna Paige for a lighthearted and celebratory show about love &#8211; that one thing we all need in our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Saturday, April 12<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Venue<\/strong>: John Rupert Theatre, Graaff-Reinet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Show starts<\/strong>: 19:00<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cost<\/strong>: R60 for children between the ages of 13 and 17, R100 for pensioners, and R130 for general admission.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sunday, April 13<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Venue<\/strong>: Boetie&#8217;s Pub, Nieu Bethesda<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Show starts<\/strong>: 14:00<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lunch available<\/strong>: Village Inn Restaurant from 11:30 to 14:00<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reservations advised<\/strong>: Contact Elbe at 072 386 0594<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Free entry<\/strong>: A hat will be passed through the crowd.
