South African singer/songwriter and guitarist Arno Carstens enjoyed massive success with his band Springbok Nude Girls before embarking on a solo career.

Another Universe, his debut solo album from 2003, was a huge success back home, picking up a Best Rock Album Award at the 2004 SAMAs while sophomore album The Hello Goodbye Boys from 2005 did the same two years later.

Arno has performed on the main stage at the Isle of Wight Festival, has appeared at Glastonbury, V Festival, and he has supported the likes of The Rolling Stones, Paul Weller, The Police, Simple Minds and Meat Loaf on European tours.

Third solo album Wonderful Wild from March 2010 marked his foray into international territories.
