Never has there been a better showcase for SA music. Free music downloads are a great way to introduce potential fans to new bands. Barney Simon and the guys from powerzone.co.za have not only figured this out, but they have clearly managed to convince some serious players in the SA music industry of this reality.You can go to www.powerzone.co.za and download singles from the likes of The Parlotones, The Finkelsteins, Evolver, Fevertree & Jo Day, to name just a few.
Quality local music ... for free.
