FRANCOIS VAN COKE GEARS UP FOR ALBUM RELEASE AND A MARATHON!
Francois van Coke is set to celebrate the release of his fourth album, Kanniedood, at his Francois van Coke & Vriende concert on Sunday 25 September. As per The Citizen, the Afrikaans superstar said he had been working on the album for two years.
“It’s a collection of songs I recorded with my best buddies. I cannot wait for the fans to hear what we have been up to,” he said.
The 41-year-old musician is also gearing up for a marathon in October and said a fan almost didn’t recognise him because he was fitter.
“I run as my life depends on it because I’m getting ready for my first marathon in October.”
WHAT TO EXPECT ON ‘KANNIEDOOD’
Kanniedood, Francois van Coke’s upcoming album, is set to be released on 23 September. As per Stay Happening, the album is influenced by old punk and new pop music and is set to be his “most accomplished album yet”.
“Kanniedood’s sound is a bit harder. It’s like a coke bottle that is shaken until it pops,” said Hunter Kennedy, van Coke’s part-time collaborator.
The album release comes after SOS, a single van Coke released in August.
