Juan Boucher has just launched his ninth album, entitled Die Rower. Juan describes the album as “a fresh breeze of romance and mysticism”. The first track, “Die Rower”, is a song that sums up love and longing and is described as “an atmosphere that hangs over the sea like fog”.
On this album there are also songs that he recorded with other artists. The track, “Suid”, which he sings with Tasché, just this week appeared on RNews’s Afrikaans Top-20 in 18th place.
