SOUTH African township music has always been a big part of Namibian households and more so music by legendary acts such as Brenda Fassie and the Big Dudes, Dan Tshanda and the Dalom Kids.
Come 27 August, Namibians will be treated to a musical feast by artists like the Dalom Kids, Splash Band, Matshikos, Boss Lady and Sylvia Tshanda. This is according to Tangeni Tlabanello, owner of Tlabatainment Productions, who said a show like this was in popular demand.
“The widow of the late legendary Dan Tshanda, Sylvia Tshanda, contacted me earlier this year and said the Namibian people can't wait for a show. So after two months of talks and negotiations, a date was agreed and the rest is history,” Tlabanello said.
He also told unWrap.online that the performers have already been to Namibia.
“We last hosted them in 2018 at Gobabis, and the turnout was big. People from all corners of Namibia turned out, so they are excited to come and perform again,” he said.
Tlabanello added that the show has attracted so much attention since it was announced such that other towns are already asking for shows as well.
“We received requests from people as far as Katima Mulilo to also host a show there. We might be having a show there next year February, but for now we are excited to host a show of this magnitude in Windhoek after so many years. Namibian people are excited and we want to give them a show to remember,” he said.
The show will also see local acts grace the stage and tickets will be available from webtickets next week.
