Native! Heartwarming! A full AB last time too. Xavier Rudd is the max for a sexy, enjoyable and healthy sound. In the meantime, his latest 'Koonyum Sun' CD has managed to make its way here (via Pias). Permit us to simply pick up the thread from the start of 2010 below (you're already on the way to our 'X-saviour' anyway, aren't you?)

'Koonyum Sun'! That's the title of the new Xavier Rudd CD. Finally! Apparently also somewhat lighter material again, following the overwhelming trip on his previous album 'Dark Shades Of Blue'. Versatile Xavier currently plays primarily with Tio Moloantoa (bass) and Andile Nqubezelo (drums). Both ex - Lucky Dube, that rather legendary South African act. So at the moment it's: Xavier Rudd & Izintaba!

Meanwhile, for the Xavier Rudd first-timers, just a quick recap of some previous praise? Hypnotizing and perfect for those who love adventurous music. Xavier Rudd is from Australia but the world is his oyster, and clearly that world must still last an eternity. Living organic and healthy are the keywords, but Xavier Rudd does package his messages well, with honesty and craftsmanship. A deep, socially involved but equally grooving and exciting musician and, quite literally, a multi-instrumentalist: solo he can do all sorts of things at the same time, with plenty of respect for nature and the Aboriginal culture, thus with didgeridoo (alias the yirdaki) plus percussion, harmonica and guitar (preferably the Weissenborn.)

You can still class Xavier Rudd along side Ani DiFranco, Jack Johnson, Daniel Lanois, Donavon Frankenreiter... in that inspired section. What a performance trip!

Support act will this time also be semi-fragile but in fact seriously unique Ben Howard. A rather pale British surfer, but above all: his melancholy vocals and special way of playing guitar are most stirring! He couldn't be here last time due to an interruption in train services but it then suddenly became very apparent just how many devoted fans Ben already has himself. Rightly so too!

Ben Howard was geweldig, maar zijn mede-muzikante stond véééééél te luid. Ze overstemde hem soms! Of is het niet de bedoeling dat zij backing-vocal is? En Xavier was weer geweldig! Heel sterk begin, al moet ik zeggen dat er in het midden een instrumentaal nummer zat dat net dat ietsje te lang duurde... Vind hem ook nog altijd véél sterker als hij helemaal alleen optreedt.

Magnifique... Nous y avons participé avec notre fils de 8 ans... Inoubliable pour lui puisque Xavier Rudd l'a invité sur sa scène! 3 personnes dignes d'être rencontrées! Show exceptionnel... Bravo!

Super stimulerend nogal tribal concert! X-saviour deed het weer met zijn groovende roots & ontwapenende présence. Chapeau ook voor Tio en zeker Andile aan bas en drums: zalig samenspel, waanzinnige jams! (Indrukwekkend ook hoe hard akoestische instrumenten kunnen worden opgeklopt.) Voorprogramma Ben Howard precies al wat minder uniek, want nu duo en gestroomlijnder, maar hij kreeg wel de toen al bijna volle zaal mee. Ben come back!
