Bruce Dennil South African music writer, “‘Eleazar Strachan, style recalls Bob Dylan's, with his long rambling, poetic original work, songs that begins with the familiar folk style of previous work soon explodes with a touch of rock licks and rhythms, on his flowery acoustic guitar.
This is Strachan at his best."

Flea markets, luncheon, theatre shows, pubs, festivals, private functions and restaurants.
I started gigging when I was 14 years old, walking around in a pub and restaurant playing covers, and from there on played weddings, functions and pubs for about 10 years before getting into bands and still doing my sole original music.
I am a big fan of Bob Dylan and enjoy 14th time around, but it's hard to pin the greatest song of all time.
I am very punctual and arrive an hour before the show for setting up an amplifier microphone and soundcheck.
3 x 40 minutes sets.but happy to play 3 to 5 hours
I am happy to perform anywhere.
I normally have a set list of original and covers mixed, but don't mind doing a request towards the end.
