 A sound engineer whose magnitude has rippled through Durban with his ever-giving attitude, Cliffy Westraad has recently been in ICU with Meningitis.
Cliffy is almost a brand himself in Durban’s intimate music scene – ask every second band and they will have experienced his technical excellence or just simply, his willingness to lend a hand.
A benefit Concert is being spearheaded by a handful of local musicians and industry associates. True to Cliffy’s giving persona, Durban bands have come forth in throngs to be a part of the event.

 Two of Durban's most influential bands of the early 60's, were the legendary Flames and the robust, instrumentally-driven Jets.
Both bands had huge fan camps at the time, with much rivalry from each side, but band leader Steve Fataar (founder and guitarist of the Flames), and Jets maestro lead guitarist Cyril Francis (pictured together) learned to play their instruments together, and lived just a few streets apart.
In the words of Steve: “We lived around the corner from each other, so spent lots of time picking up little tricks from each other, you know 'hey, how did you do that?'”
