Albert Frost

For the past two decades, the energetic performances of award-winning blues/rock guitarist/singer Albert Frost have captured audiences worldwide. Dubbed the “South African Hendrix”, Frost deftly alternates between rhythm and lead, showcasing his extraordinary skills on the acoustic and electric guitars. His first love is the blues, stemming from the influence of his long relationship with the Blues Broers, a well-known and respected group from cape town with whom he has performed since 1994 at the age of 17. In 2000 he became one of the first Fender endorsees in South Africa and has been linked with the brand ever since. He has recorded with Arno Carstens, Koos Kombuis, Chris Chameleon, Anton Goosen, David Kramer, Karen Zoid, Blues Broers, and many others. He has performed with every major artist in South Africa, including international artists like Ali Farka Touré and Finley Quaye. He has toured with Simple Minds and REM, and supported the Rolling Stones. Albert has also performed at some of the most legendary and exclusive international music festivals including the Isle of Wight, Hard Rock Calling and Oppikoppi. April 2016 saw the release of his third solo album "The Wake Up" which won the coveted best rock album category at the 2017 South African Music Awards. After a very successful 2017 Klein Karoo Nasionale Kunstefees, Frost was nominated for a Kanna Award as well as a Kyknet-Fiësta Award in 2018.
