Seasons Wither 4: Secret and Whisper Cancellation

The following is the official press release from the Seasons Wither 4 organisers:

Good day Seasoners,

It’s with much disappointment that we announce that Secret and Whisper’s international tour has been cancelled. Well actually, we got a Facebook message like the rest of you, and afterwards the email popped into my inbox.

We (myself, Jean and Bianca) got wind of the tour going south (pardon the pun) two days ago and offered our assistance to Zeal entertainment in trying to sort something out. Even though this wasn’t our tour, we had an investment in Secret and Whisper as they were scheduled to perform at our Event – we’ve even secured playlisting for the band across our media partners’ airspace – which would’ve included a Live performance on MK and their video for “XOXOXO” played on high rotation. We’ve already committed many hours in promoting the band’s participation at Seasons Wither 4. Alas, the rest of the outcome was beyond our control – as I’ve mentioned – we offered our assistance at the 11th hour, and the entire tour was cancelled shortly afterwards with less than 24 hours to come up with a solution.

Now many fans will be disappointed, some fans might blame the South African music scene (which is bollocks). We disagree, on the contrary, I think that we must be grateful that a show like Seasons Wither has grown in it’s magnitude on the sweat, hard work and general radness of South African bands – and this is just another testimony of the strength that we have within our own borders – and how far we’ve come – and how far we can still potentially go. We at the Seasons Camp feel that our line-up still stands on it’s own stead and will still blow all of you away.

Thanks for listening, and we’ll be seeing you on the 29th of May.

Keep well everyone.

~Seasons Wither Team~
