Albert Frost at The Showroom

Albert Frost

Albert Frost has supported the legendary Rolling Stones, and toured with REM and Simple Minds! His latest of many notable performances happens at The Showroom Theatre, in Prince Albert on Friday 27 March.

He has recorded with Arno Carstens, Koos Kombuis, Chris Chameleon, Blues Broers and many others. A true Blues Man and fiery, melodic soloist, Albert has always been hot property and has performed with every major artist in South Africa. Besides the Stones and the high profile Rock icons, he’s also performed with icons from other genres, like world music star Ali Farka Toure and reggae artist Finley Quaye. Finley won the 1997 Mobo Award for best reggae act, and the 1998 BRIT Award for Best Male Solo Artist…

The energetic performances of this accomplished guitarist have dazzled audiences, as he deftly alternates between rhythm and lead, while showcasing acoustic and electric guitars. His first love is Blues, stemming from the influence of his long relationship with the Blues Broers with whom he has performed since when he was just 17 years old…

The Blues Broers have recently been very active again, releasing new material in the form of Out of the Blue (2012) and Into the Red (2014.) The Albert Frost Blues Trio Live in Grahamstown recorded in 2013 and released earlier this year, reflects the magic of witnessing Albert performing with Schalk Joubert and Kevin Gibson.

His patent enjoyment of the music he performs and his instruments as well as his charming rapport with the audience, keeps his admirers captivated and returning for more.

“Frost is one of the most versatile and talented guitarists in South Africa. Seeing him wield his myriad axes is a lesson in what is possible with a guitar.” Murray Walker, What’s On, July 2013.
