Beatenberg is the folk-pop trio of Capetonian friends Matthew Field, Ross Dorkin and Robin Brink. Forming in 2009, the group performed a number of shows that received positive feedback from the public and industry, and recorded the album Farm Photos.

Their songs "Lost In Translation" and "in B Flat" have also been included on the Rebel Records compilations South African Acoustic Volume 1 and South African Rock, Pop & Dance Vol. 1, alongside the likes of BLK JKS, Gazelle, and aKING. They plan to embark on a nationwide tour later in 2011.
