Musicians Andy Muridzo and Sam Dondo will for the first time in their careers perform at the SAMA Fest UK, one of that country’s most anticipated shows.
With indications last night showing that tickets were almost running out, the two young artists will have a test of their artistry in front of a full house.
Some of the acts include Oliver Mtukudzi, Winky D and Mafikizolo.
The Festival runs from today Friday 30 March with the London show taking place at Oasis while the Saturday one happens in Coventry at Sky Dome Arena.
An ecstatic Andy Muridzo told Zimbuzz that he was bringing all the firepower to Great Britain.
“I have come with full force”, he said. “People should expect a mixture of volcano and tornado.”
“The SAMA Fest is my opportunity to show Zimbabweans living in the UK what I am capable of”, he added.
Muridzo has been teasing his new song Munondo from the upcoming album and UK fans might be lucky to hear the full version of it.
For Sam Dondo the SAMA Fest is as much a test as it is for his compatriot Andy.
The musician has pulled a big collaboration with Casper Nyovest and told ZimboJam that he was excited about his project.
From his tone, the singer looks determined to cross the great divide into Pop culture.
“I am really excited about this collaboration, this venture brings a new element to my music when I looked at the two albums I have released the past two years, I realised that my style appealed more to the senior folks but with this collaboration, I will also appeal to the youths,” he said.
Sam Dongo has had some releases in the past two years that have longer shelf life than they actually lasted and the UK show might be that magical moment that fans will get to know of them.
Again those attending the SAMA Fest might be lucky to get a sample of Sam Dondo’s new album which is set for release end of May.
This year’s festivity is sponsored by Impala Car Rental and it seems the company have already an International success story under their belt after bringing Casper Nyovest to Harare in 2017.
Speaking at the SAMA Fest press conference the Impala Car Rental representative Alex said it was a momentous occasion to be partnering with the UK SAMA Fest
He also said the company is growing both in their mainline business and by doing an international show and have captured 46% of the market share, with every second car leaving Zimbabwe being an Impala Car
