DarkSoulSafari

Avant-garde rock band Dark Soul Safari is the brainchild of singer-songwriter Adriaan van Heerden. As the name suggests, the band takes the listener on a musical journey into the darker recesses of human society and the human psyche.

In a perfect fusion of music and message, Van Heerden's lyrics are a powerful protest at the state of the world and how we relate to ourselves, to others and to our wider environment.

Musically, the tracks contain elements of rock, rock 'n' roll, gospel, blues, punk and indie rock. Van Heerden credits Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Randy Newman, Richard Thompson and David Byrne as some of his main influences.
