South Africans Rock

About Me


===============================

Peter Vincent, can truly be called the prodigal son of South African Rock. After limited success in his own country, due the small rock audience in South Africa, he left for the U.S.A. to become a studio musician and producer in New York and became very succesfull and in demand as a session player and singer.
A succesfull solo career in Europe as a singer song writer, and later as a composer for film and television, finally gave him the freedom and the longing to return to South Africa and persue his dream of doing real "South African Rock", but this time in his mother tongue :Afrikaans!
Peter is also the CEO of Mega Media Solutions a production company/record company that specializes in music videos, film and advertising.
Acting roles in soaps like "Isidingo", "90 Plein street", "Scandal", "Jacobs Cross" and other independent films came along due to his involvement in the music side of film, and he insist's that he sometimes regrets doing it , due to the fact that people now sometimes refer to him as an actor who sings,(WRONG!) instead of "the rocker who sometimes act!" Peter Vincent is currently the new face (as a sports castor) for the U.K company "Teletext", appearing in all their Television comercials , as well as on their billboards all across the European Union.
Between composing film music , doing shows , and acting, Peter spends his time helping young musicians, lecturing, and doing charity work. His favorite charity at the moment is doing shows coupled with fund raising for kids with disabilities , (see his website)
Peter Vincent uses:
Kramer and Gibson guitars (live), Fender and Ibanez guitars (studio), Marshall amplifiers, Zoom and Sansamp processors, Shure SM 58 microphones (live), Berhinger, Shure mics (studio), Ensoniq Keyboards and sampling units, Sennheiser microphones for instruments(studio), A lot of caffeine!
Folks Please! This artist is not here to see how many comments or friend ads can be acheived!, thats why a lot of comments and friends requests do not appear on the site( it gets edited by management) "myspace whores" should not bother.
The "friends" data base will be edited from time to time to keep it small and personal!. This site is here to create networking, so that Mr vincent can help young bands ( that he likes) and to network with patrons for his charities!
Self Promotion is not on the agenda!

Wow , thanks for the great reaction from all ,we as management have been overwhelmed by all the requests.

Sorry muso's and bands for taking so long to ad you to Peter's space but mr Vincent insist's on adding , checking and llistening to all himself and therefore management pleads innocence when a comment or ad takes long, as it depends on Peter's schedule.
