Tickets to Stanbic Bank Jacaranda Music Festival go on sale beginning 8 September 2022 exactly a month before the event, organisers said.
The festival is slated for Old Hararians Sports Club on October 8, 2022 with headlining acts such as Bongo Maffin, Zonke and Zimbabwe’s very own Janet Manyowa.
Bongo Maffin have performed in the capital on a number of occasions including the now defunct Harare International Festival of the Arts.
Still a favourite of many since the days of The Way Kungakhona in 2001, Bongo Maffin always feel a lot like home when they perform in Harare.
This is because the South African kwaito music group formed was originally formed by a Zimbabwe-born musician DJ Appleseed Johannesburg in 1996.
They released their first studio album, Leaders of D’Gong, in 1997, followed by The Concerto (1998) Bongolution (2001) and New Construction (2005).
The group consisted of four members namely Stone Seate, Jah Seed, Speedy and lead vocalist Lead singer Thandiswa Mazwai published her debut solo album, Zabalaza, in 2006, after the group departed ways.
However their reunion in 2019 came with a new Afro-beat Pop album From Bongo With Love, thus not deviating from their original sound.
