Fresh from a sell-out run in Grahamstown, The Brothers Streep are back in Cape Town with their hilarious and harmonious blend of comedy and music. “With endearing charm, boyish good looks and a talent for catchy hooks… expect to be humming the songs long after the performance is over.” Cue 2012

The Brothers Streep are an acoustic comedy act from Cape Town, South Africa. Performing as both a duo and full band, they have made their mark locally through playing at major South African events such as Rocking the Daisies (2010 & 2011), Synergy (2011), The 1st Annual Comics Choice Awards (2011) and Grahamstown Festival (2012 + 2013), whilst also broadening their horizons internationally by playing to Anna Paquin on The Graham Norton Show (2009) and debuting their own full length show at The Gilded Balloon as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe (2010). They are perhaps best known in South Africa for their performance on the first and last episode of SA Idols Season IV (2011) and for their quirky songs written for adverts, Geely (2011) and DSTV (2011/12).

Was loads of fun, I was very impressed with the tight set and the new material. Thank you Alexander Bar for hosting them so we could see their Grahamstown show in CT.
