Biography on The Morning After 

Dirk Klut has been making music for more than 2 decades, teaching himself to play guitar with Eric Clapton’s “Unplugged” album. Verse for verse and chorus for chorus, he didn’t give up until he could play every song, which gives one a tiny bit of insight into his work ethic, dedication and passion for music. When he is not perfecting his fashion sense, Dirk is killing it on guitar and vocals in The Morning After. He loves to travel, reading biographies and crafting guitars from scratch.

Name an instrument and Gerhard Oosthuizen can play it, but in The Morning After, he is both the occasional vocalist and the guy slapping the bass. G is seasoned musician, who played for several popular South African acts before he teamed up with his best friend and business partner, Dirk, to form The Morning After. G takes care of the operational side of the band with the uncanny ability to sort out and organise just about anything. He is also known for cracking a lot of jokes (of the dad jokes variety), so when you hear his booming laughter, just go with it!

Shannon Sutherland-Clark does not fit the unflattering stereotypes floating around about drummers. He is always on time, he is a genius and drumming to him is not just bashing around, it’s a pretty technical skill. Shannon is a SAMA award-winning musician, an avid golfer (5 handicap), the band clown and a real-life equivalent of Bob the Builder.
