WHERE: Lyric Theatre at Gold Reef City
COST: from R350.00 at Computicket
Date: Saturday 26th August 2023
Africa’s legendary Pop-duo Mafikizolo is next to perform in the upcoming 2023 Bassline Live at The Lyric Theatre series. With the duo having just been awarded the Metro FM Lifetime Achievement Award, and their iDwala album already reaching Platinum status, this is the perfect moment to celebrate and share in their success story. Their story is a masterclass in relevance, longevity and grace.
“This Live Experience, as with all the Bassline Live at The Lyric Theatre shows, will be a first of its kind experience. In staying with the high quality, bespoke, collaborative and theatrical shows recently presented on the series, such as the sold out shows of Msaki’s Delta Love Experience this past March and the Sun El Musician & Friends experience in 2022, to name a few. The Mafikizolo iDwala Live Experience, will not disappoint.” Says Bassline Live’s Brad Holmes.
“We have not had an intimate live session with our fans and supporters in a very long time and this makes it super exciting for us.” Says Nhlanhla Mafu of Mafikizolo. “Also, we have not had a chance to properly introduce and present the album to our fans so this performance will give us an opportunity to showcase the album itself. So we want our supporters to come, open minded and ready, to be serenaded with new songs and sounds from the iDwala album. We will of course perform their favorite Mafikizolo classics as we will be taking them through the Mafikizolo journey. We therefore encourage them to come dressed in their favorite Mafikizolo Era as we not only celebrate the album but the milestone as well.”
Adds Mafikizolo’s Theo Kgosinkwe, “What’s going to be great about the iDwala live experience is that we are going to take the audience through our musical journey, we want the audience to the enjoy music that they grew up listening to, we want them to enjoy the music, fashion and dance experience of Mafikizolo. We encourage them to dress up in their Kwela attires to add the element of fashion in this experience. We will also be joined by friends of Mafikizolo on stage to celebrate the Mafikizolo iDwala Live experience.”
iDwala bookmarks the milestone 25th anniversary of Mafikizolo.
