Zinkplaat het weer hierdie week Sunset Studios toe gegaan om verder aan hulle 4de album te werk.
Hoewel die album nog nie ‘n naam het nie, is 5 splinternuwe liedjies al klaar en nog ‘n klomp op pad.
Volgens die band probeer hulle nog meer eksperimenteer as op hulle vorige album, die Tempo-genomineerde “Musiek Uit Die Geraas”.
Die eerste single behoort binnekort gratis vir downloads vrygestel te word en ‘n musiekvideo is in die pyplyn.
Zinkplaat vertrek vandag Gauteng toe vir ‘n Pre-Jool Fees by Sonop Manskoshuis in Pretoria op die 23ste saam met New Holland en Pieter Smit.

Die MK Derde Avontoer se twee busse, tien bands en honderd seerowers het nog ‘n suksesvolle aanslag op twee Suid-Afrikaanse kuste geloods.
Met volgepakte sale van Lambertsbaai tot in Jeffreysbaai is die sukses van die toer ‘n aanduiding van die kwaliteit musiek van die bands, die algemene gees en respek van die seerowers en vakansiedorpe wat uitgehonger is vir oorspronklike plaaslike musiek.
Die internet sal binnekort wemel van Avontoer fotos, footage en stories, maar vir eers kan julle die inside scoop by die volgende plekke vind:
