Hi! It's tough to be a professional musician in Cape Town but @clairemobey and I do a gig every couple of months or so...
Our paid ones are at the Cottage Club and the Alma Cafe, which are lovely intimate venues with great sound - perfect for the acoustic folky stuff we do to an audience of 30-50 people... Usually family, friends and their friends in turn!
There are some nice open mics and open stages as well... Our favourite is the Barleycorn Music Club, which has been promoting local original music since 1976... I used to be on the organising committee when I was a student...
Beyond that, we are still actually trying to work out where else to play ourselves if I'm honest!
