South African musician, Kurt Darren, will be in Texas on the weekend of Feb 8-9, 2014 and will have a concert in Bandera on Sunday, Feb 9. It will be an afternoon concert to fit in better with people’s travel schedules.

This isn’t only about the concert though… it is about a whole weekend of fun! There will be a big Bring & Braai on the Saturday evening where people can mingle and have a decent South African party!

On top of this, Bandera is a beautiful Texas town that is known as the The Cowboy Capital of the World. There are many dude ranches and other interesting “cowboy” places to visit.

It is easy to make an unforgettable weekend out of this one!

If you’ve been out of South Africa for a long time and you’re wondering, “Who is Kurt Darren?”… here is one of his songs…
