One of modern R&B's most distinctive voices will be gracing the stage at Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden in Cape Town on Monday, 30 November.

Texas-born Leon Bridges will be showcasing his timeless songwriting, effortless vocals and a sound that draws from the golden era of R&B while remaining firmly rooted in the present.

From his breakthrough debut 'Coming Home' to albums including 'Good Thing', 'Gold-Diggers Sound' and 'Leon', Bridges has continually evolved while retaining the R&B sensibility that first captured the world's attention.

His fifth studio album, 'Happiness Anytime', was released on 25 September 2026, marking the next chapter in a career that has seen Bridges collaborate with artists across genres while earning widespread critical acclaim.

"I’ve wanted to play South Africa for a long time, and I’m really excited to finally make it there, especially with this album, for these two special shows. I can’t wait to share the music with everyone," says Bridges.
