Cape Town-based fusion band Coda is one of the most exciting and ground-breaking new acts to grace local and international stages in recent years. Their distinctive sound gained immediate popularity amongst an astonishingly broad range of audiences – Coda’s diversity has resulted in a new style of South African music that appeals to audiences from Soweto to Paarl, from Gugulethu to Bloemfontein and from Dubai to the Seychelles

Within a year, this Afro-Classical outfit was nominated as one of the country’s top five bands in the 2006 Top Billing/Lifestyle Awards. Coda has been described in the media as the ‘next big thing’ in the South African music industry. Says Bianca Coleman of the Cape Argus ‘Coda is just so hot right now…You simply cannot think about having a party without at least trying to sign them up for the evening’s entertainment…CODA is the city’s most in-demand band.’
