DJ Gary Cool, 2 Oceans Vibe Radio “From the press kit to the album artwork to the actual production of the CD/DVD package, the boys from COH have proven to me that they aren’t just talented musicians, but also shrewd marketers. They’re already miles ahead of many of their contemporaries.” MusicReview.co.za “There is no doubt that they have not only the right mindset, but also the talent to take their music to the next level, and at the same time encapsulating a great social initiative of hope for a better future.” Indiedoesit.co.za “The music is extraordinary; a filled to the brim, post-punk alternative-rock lucky packet where disappointment does not exists. They have a strong underlying positive message in their songs and that is exactly what you find at their live show - hope.” SAmusicscene.co.za ______________________________________________________ ★ DISCOGRAPHY: For our debut album release entitled “The Great Unknown”, we signed up with Brettian Productions / Laminin Entertainment on the distribution and licensing of the album which was released nationwide in South Africa and on various digital platforms around the world in March 2011.

It’s a carefully calculated and wellthought out effort from a bunch of guys who knew what they were doing – it’s terrifically fun, yet every song still paints vivid imagery. The musical formula and structure might be awfully simple, but the songwriting is pure genius.” ★ GET OUR ALBUM HERE - ITUNES https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/the-great-unknown/id509357375 ______________________________________________________ ★ TOURS AND FESTIVALS: - BILLY TALENT (Post aKOPPIlyptic Punk Picnic 2013) - OPPIKOPPI 2014 - RAMFEST 2013 - AARDKLOP FEST 2012 - BYDIEMAAN FEST 2012 - OLD MUTUAL MUSIC IN THE GARDENS 2012 - PUNK TOWN MUSIC FEST 2012 - KKNK FEST 2011 - MERCHFEST 2011/2013 - CRASHCARBURN DEC TOUR 2011/2012 - THE NARROW DBN TOUR 2011 - STORM THE COAST TOUR 2010 Bands we've shared the stage with: BILLY TALENT, What Now (UK), The Narrow, Van Coke Kartel, Crashcarburn, aKING, Newtown Knife Gang, Pestroy, Shadowclub, Fuzigish MANAGEMENT / BOOKING: jean@new-hope-clothing.com
