Milky Chance recently announced their long-awaited return to South Africa with their “Living In A Haze” tour in February 2024 which will see them perform in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban. The German Duo are excited to confirm that both Neon Dreams and Sean Koch will join them as support acts on the line-up for their shows in Cape Town (15 February) and Johannesburg (17 February), and Neon Dreams will also join Milky Chance in Durban (18 February) as support act.
Canadian duo Neon Dreams are no strangers to the South African music scene. Their 2019 single “Life Without Fantasies” reached the top of the South African viral charts amassing millions of streams in 2021 during the lockdown. The band connected with tens of thousands of fans online which led to their first sold out headline tour. They have continued to cement themselves in the industry here, having toured the country a number of times over the past few years and return in February 2024 to share the stage with Milky Chance in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban.
Sean Koch is one of SA’s most-loved indie-folk artists who brings a mixed bag of African and western, influence alongside messages of home, a connection to nature, the ocean and the people around him; to his storytelling, feel-good music. While rooted in his flowing-folk style, his music is diverse. From dance infused songs like ‘Lift You Up’ the standout single from his collection (including the Double MZK & G DOM remix) to the dreamier songs like ‘Feel the Energy’ that carry deeper messages of connection to the natural world and the people that surround us. There is something for everyone in Sean’s catalogue.

My favourite Just Jinjer song is Sugar Man because I can’t help but want to get up and groove to the music when it plays 🙂
Justine

My fav Just Jinger song is Like You Madly.. it makes me think of when you fall for someone but you are so afraid to say the big L-word coz you aren’t sure if they feel the same and they seem so busy in their own life, so you are very unsure what to do. Also, the beat is hella catchy!!

My FAV has to be Suagr Man! It’s a song I grew up hearing in the house and Just Jinjer have done it justice! It’s also the very first song I ever heard them sing love – love love love!

Hi Durbanites:)
I used to have a massive poster of Just Jinger on the back of my bedroom door when I was a young teenager and I loved Art Mathews-thought his dreads made him super rebellious which in turn seemed uber cool for a little rebellious 13 yr. old:) I obviously love their music too…plus I want their coffee#I WANT MY COFFEE:) Would love to experience a little deja vu at Bot gardens jamming to Just Jinger:)

My favourite Just Jinger song is Shallow Waters. Besides the fact that it is an amazing song, lyrically and musically, it gives me goosebumps. It always makes me think about my life and where I am going and what I have been through (nevermind it might not be the true meaning of it). It is inspirational. Also, it reminds me of the first time I saw Just Jinger at a concert in Pretoria at my High School in 1998! I loved them since then and still do… Awesome!

I LOVE leaving shallow waters. Listened to it a million times! Made me brave when I was doing my gap year in Germany and feeling home sick.

For me the song ‘Home’, written by Ard a few years ago is my favourite. The words alone touch your heart and to dedicate a song to Madiba – the man who sacrificed so much for us. The song speaks the truth and gives us another reason to love our country, the man who gave us our freedom and a place to call home. Proudly South African <3
Jason

My choice would have to be “What He Means.” It challenged me to re-look at what I believe my God teaches me about treating others. A beautifully crafted challenging song!
Candice Ramoudh

My favourite song is ‘What he means’ because I think that the song communicated such a powerful message in such a lighthearted manner.

Like You Madly. This song is my favourite, because it just brings back SO many memories of the first time I saw Just Jinger live, with a whole lot of special and amazing people around me. It’s my favourite because of the memories. Kickstands are also a awesome band. Hoping to create new memories.

Shallow Waters is still their best song without a doubt! The lyrics are so beautiful, the guitaring is simply out of this world and enchanting. Its really such a beautiful song and I don’t think there is a person on this earth that doesn’t know the song and love it as much as I do!

Father & Father is an awesome song. All Just Jinger songs are awesome and have a certain catchy tune that always seems to get stuck in your head! This would be an awesome concert provided it doesnt rain!

Time Of Your Life is such an awesome song and one of my favourites from Just Jinjer. It always reminds me that life is too short to worry about stupid stuff and you should just enjoy what you have right now.

Growing up with Just Jinjer as a teenager makes it so difficult to choose a favourite, but their cover of Sugarman was the first time I ever heard the song, and my mind jumps straight to Just Jinjer anytime I hear it, regardless of whose playing it.

Shallow water- a song that pulls at my heart strings, its beautiful and heart warming. Their other songs are great as well. I’m proud of Just Jinger they produce awesome music and I would love to watch them live, with my daughter she worships them. ( I’m sure I would be the best dad in the world) Thanks Durbanite!

“What He Means” – not me..He !! What He Means is my fav Just Jinger song…gives me hope and inspiration….all round feel good song..and of course pays reference to one of the greatest songs by Bob Marley – “Redemption Song” !!! Looking fwd to Sunday !
Catherine Schmuhl
12 March 2014 at 9:56 am
OMG! I adore every single song of Just Jinjer! But my absolute favourite is Shallow Waters, it just stirs up some very deep emotion for me. Following Shallow Waters closely behind is Father and Father, simply because I lost my Father 12 years ago and the song just connects with me. We went to see Just Jinjer a few years ago but couldn’t stay long because my little kiddies were not happy with the loud music. This weekend is my 11th wedding anniversary weekend, and I would like it to be just for us 🙂

Just Jinjer holds some Great memories with good friends bouncing around & singing back at the band to “Like you Madly” and hoisting one or two peeps onto my shoulders for “Sugerman” 🙂 stoked they’re returning with some new material – it’s going to be an awesome Sunday. Big up to the Kickstands for opening
Tash Lindsay
