The Rescu To Release Self-Titled Debut Album

The Rescu is a three-piece rock band based in Cape Town that has been crafting and performing the songs that make up their self-titled debut album for the past 18 months. Regular trips to an empty house in a small town not far from the Mother City, helped to produce the 10 tracks that make up the album. These song-writing getaways, coupled with countless rehearsal sessions back home was a fruitful pre-production stage for The Rescu to find their sound and capture it.

The band drew their inspiration for the songs from various elements and life experiences. Their genuine and heartfelt love for South Africa and its people inspired many of the tracks. The band name expresses their desire for something relevant, something needed, something out of the ordinary; something that happens to be in the right place at the right time.

To date, The Rescue has performed with some of the biggest names on the South african music circuit, including Just Jinjer, Foto Na Dans, The Dirty Skirts and Prime Circle. These performances, as well as the many smaller shows played have given them the street cred they require to hold their own at any level of live performance.

The Rescu will be launching their album on August 31 at Grand West Casino's Hanover Street. The music video for the first single, I Did It For You will also be screened on the night.
