Meet Matthew Mole, platinum-selling singer/songwriter hailing from the vibrant lands of South Africa. Picture this: a musical alchemist brewing a concoction that’s part folk, part electronic wizardry, and all shades of eccentricity.

Matthew is the maestro behind his own melodies, crafting songs that dance between the realms of imagination and reality. With four full-length albums and a trove of B-side EPs under his belt, he’s a one-man band on a quest for sonic exploration.

His debut album, ‘The Home We Built,’ didn’t just hit the charts; it bulldozed its way to the #1 spot on iTunes SA, marking Matthew as the first to do that in South African music history. His second album ‘Run’ dashed to the top of the iTunes charts as well, proving that lightning does strike twice in the realm of musical mischief.

‘Ghost,’ his third album, materialized in 2019, haunting the airwaves with its ethereal tunes and snagging two South African Music Awards like shiny trophies in a bizarre dream.

But it’s not just about the accolades; it’s about the journey. Matthew’s latest musical odyssey, ‘Wake Up, It’s Morning,’ has stirred up nearly 5 million Spotify streams in record time.

When he’s not enchanting audiences with his whimsical tunes, Matthew’s busy collecting SAMA nominations like they’re rare Pokémon cards. And let’s not forget his escapades on stage—whether he’s sharing the limelight with international acts like Bastille, Jungle and Robbie Williams or gallivanting across the globe, from the USA to Europe to the far reaches of Thailand and Russia.

And did I mention his European jaunts? Matthew’s chalked not one, not two, but four headline tours across the continent, leaving a trail of whimsy and wonder in his wake. From the cobblestone streets of the UK to the eclectic cities of Germany, The Netherlands, France, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Spain and Belgium. Each stop on his tours adding a new chapter to his global symphony.

Bar and food court and bars open from 5h30pm
