Time To Push The Awesome Button

Sergeant Fu burst onto the local music scene during the Soccer World Cup with their catchy tune Vuvuzela. Immediately they captured local and international attention with their eclectic style, zany sense of humour and fun demeanor.

Now Matthew Marinus and Ryno Zeelie offer their eagerly awaited debut album, Push The Awesome Button, aiming to bring light and happiness to our everyday, routine-filled lives and win over the hearts of all who listen to it.

Push The Awesome Button is predominantly driven with power-pop beats, yet it cleverly introduces and incorporates the free-spirited, playful personality with unique samples and sounds. The individuality of the album shines through in Sergeant Fu's ability to blend honest humour with sincere emotions. Through the intricate use of playful lyrical constructions, the songs grab you by surprise with their simplicity, relevance and sing-along ability.



"Ryno and I went on a quest to create a new genre of music called 'Feel-Good' and we feel that the vibe of the combined tunes on Push The Awesome Button will make people shake their ass, laugh, smile and giggle from beginning to end. That, in a nutshell, is what our debut album is all about. Enjoy!" says Matt.

Push The Awesome Button will be launched on October 20 at Tanz Cafe, Fourways, and the event is open to the public. Doors open at 19h00 with the opening act (Josie) performing at 20h15 and Sergeant Fu taking to the stage at 21h00. Tickets are R50 and can be booked at (011) 658-0277.
