International SA pop star, singer, producer & actor IKE MORIZ (Cosmopolitan hot talent) has received wide acclaim for his 11 albums ranging from original melodic indie Rock/Pop to Latin/Easy Listening & Jazzy Swing (all available on iTunes). His songs were played in 17 countries worldwide reaching No.1 in the UK, Holland, South Africa & Germany. Ike has acted in many major international feature films such as ‘Alfie’, ‘Shanghai Knights’ and ‘Love Actually’, and he appeared in local TV programs like ‘Showbiz Report’, ‘Top Billing’ & ‘Backstage’, as well as UK TV series ‘Eastenders’, ‘Family Affairs’ and ‘The Bill’ et al. Rock legend David Bowie awarded Ike’s songs repeatedly as ‘top song of the month’ on his web site!

‘South Africa’s own indie pop idol’ (The Citizen, Cape Argus) studied music and acting in South Africa, Germany and Holland after a jet-setting childhood. The versatile singer, actor, producer and songwriter spent five years in London, fronting rock bands, performing in musicals and running his own label Mosquito Records London, before returning to his favorite country South Africa in 2005. He was voted one of the top five singers in South Africa in 2006. He is the resident entertainer at 3 of the most prestigious ‘5 star’ hotels in Cape Town (e.g.: Cape Grace). His songs have taken the SA radio charts by storm while his music videos rock SA TV channels. Ike has performed at all major venues in Cape Town and Johannesburg with his band of top session musicians (e.g. Kirstenbosch, City Hall, Waterfront Amphitheatre, FTV, Back2Basics, Blues Room, Green Dolphin, Rainbow Room etc.). Most top SA bands such as Judith Sepuma, The Parlotones, Arno Carstens, Prime Circle, Stealing Love Jones etc.) have shared a stage with Ike Moriz. He is sponsored by Cape City Volkswagen & top UK fashion designer JAGADI Haute Couture.

Ike is currently recording a new original Pop/Rock album (Breathing Dreams), & his 11th album (Sunday) will be released on 3rd April 2011.

In the US, Ike was described as “Bowie without the glam meets Oasis without the self-importance teamed with UK chart alternative without the boredom”.
