Organisers of the UB40 Concert have announced Comfort Mbofana as host.
The veteran radio personality affectionately known as Mbofs is sure to bring the vibe on stage come 25 May 2023 at the Old Hararians Sports Club.
Known for his calm and collected presentations, Mbofs will turn on his style at the gig featuring Ali Campbell.
It is easy to see why Mbofs makes the cut for the concert since he belongs to the old skool generation, at least the generation that appreciates UB40 hey days.
That said, Mbofs has a wide knowledge of music and he is set to showcase his very best.
The concert is scheduled to start at 4pm with Josh Ansley being the opening act at a concert that also features the talents of local guitarist Sylent Nqo.
Ansley attended Lomagundi High School in Chinhoyi where he was popular for playing the role of Kenicke in the rendition of the popular 1978 American musical comedy “Grease” – made a name for himself in South Africa’s “The Voice SA Season 2” blind auditions when he did a rendition of AC/ DC’s classic ballad, “Shook Me All Night Long”. He got four turns and incredibly high praise from the panel of coaches.
Local fans of the famous English reggae and pop band, UB40 are set for a treat when the group makes a return to Zimbabwe 41 years after its maiden performance in the country in 1982.
The nine-piece band, which was in the country about two years after Zimbabwe gained its independence, confirmed their second coming on Africa Day.
Ali Campbell also via promo videos has been upbeat about the concert promised much love to his fans.
