David Bowie once voted the song, You Could, single of the week on his Web site. The singer was Ike Moriz, who is often referred to as a mixture of Bowie and Oasis. Ike has returned to Cape Town for good after having enjoyed a successful music career in London for five years. His latest album is Play Me, which he wrote and produced.
After studing music in South Africa, Germany and the Netherlands, he decided to try the London music scene. He met with George Michael’s producer Steve Kent, who put him in touch with session musicians who were into the same music as he was. Ike recorded his two albums with them. His first three singles were popular in 17 countries. He also had some small acting parts in Alfie, Bridget Jones’s Diary 2, Love Actually, and a body double part in Wimbledon.
