THE SOUL BROTHERS 36TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION

So through my hustling skills I scored myself a YEAHBO.NET invite to the Soul Brothers 36^th Anniversary Media Luncheon Launch. My first experience to such, since I am no media mogul or journalist.  But they say a DIVA is a female version of a hustler or I can say that it was just the birth of a business venture between me and YEAHBO.NET….Did I say I am looking forward to see this venture to grow? Yes I am.

                                        THE SOUL BROTHERS 36^TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION

The Luncheon Launch was held at Durban’s most favored hotel – The Hilton Hotel. Most people from the local media scenes were there, i.e. Independent News journalists, Igagasi 99.5fm, the second largest radio station in the world with an estimated 6.67 million listeners – “UKHOZI FM” representatives were also there.

The reason behind this media launch - which was made possible by MVUNONAL A HOLDINGS Financial Services Company in conjunction with UKHOZI FM, is to see Soul Brothers rise again. They will be presenting one of the biggest concerts. The Soul Brothers 36^th Anniversary Celebration Concert which is to be held at Durban’s Inkosi Albert Luthuli International Convention Centre on September 22, 2012.

This International Mbhaqanga - Jazz concert will be one of the best yet, as legends in these music genres will share a stage in celebration of one of South Africa’s best known bands, the Soul Brothers. The concert will feature an international artist Gerald Albright, Johnny Clegg, Jimmy Dludlu, Grammy Award Winner Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Mbongeni Ngema and Ihhashi Elimhlophe.

Tribute performances will include the likes of Zakes Bantwini, Siphokazi, Oskido, The Soil, DJ Siyanda and Sifiso Ncwane. Tickets will go on sale at Computicket (they are now available at Computicket from R150.00).

“The whole emphasis on Mvunonala Holdings involvement with the Soul Brothers as their pilot band is installing the idea of SAVING – not just to them, but to all other artists who get featured on their national tours, as you would have heard a lot of our late artist’s families struggling with burying their loved ones – as per Mvunolala’s Executive Director Welcome Nzimande, former UKHOZI station manager”

And it’s also a good initiative to celebrate our artist while they are still alive and if there are companies like Mvunonala willing to fund celebrations like these…why not!

NB: Mark your diaries for the 22^nd day of Spring to be a part of this big celebration... See u there!
