When Zonke performs her hits ‘Feelings’ and ‘Jig’Izinto’, festival goers will be exposed to one of SA’s most accomplished musicians.
The chart topping hits are sure to get the crowds moving in rhythmic joy during the forthcoming Amstel Golden Hour. The Macufe Cultural Festival on October 13th provides the backdrop for the show, and Bloemfontein can look forward to an audio visual feast which is best complemented by the sultry sounds that define Zonke.
Zonke, who describes her music as Neo Soul, is not only an acclaimed musician, but also one of a very select few female musicians worldwide to produce her own album. This musical genius together with a world class stage and lighting production is sure to have fans enthralled when the Amstel Golden Hour featuring Zonke arrives in Bloemfontein this October.
Born and raised in the Eastern Cape just outside Port Elizabeth, music became a part of her life from a very young age. Her father, an accomplished drummer often held rehearsals and jam sessions at home, and it was this very background that drove her passion for music. This love for her craft will electrify the fans when she performs during the 13th edition of the acclaimed Amstel Golden Hour series of performances.
Of her impending performance, Zonke says,
“I love breaking rules, and music is my playground. With brands like Amstel providing such terrific support for SA Music, musicians get a chance to truly express themselves and bring something different to the fans. I truly look forward to providing my fans with an unforgettable performance during the Amstel Golden Hour at Macufe.”
The Amstel Golden Hour platform has seen numerous mega stars of South African music provide incredible experiences for the fans while the various one off collaborations have stunned both audiences and commentators alike proving that SA music just gets better with Amstel. Zonke will be following in the footsteps of other respected South African artists Zahara, HHP, Zakes Bantwini and Lira among others.
Amstel, together with the award winning Zonke will see to it that the fans are treated to yet another world class performance in Bloemfontein.
“Macufe is one of the largest festivals in South Africa, and has become an integral part of South African music culture. We are proud to be associated with such an extraordinary event and are committed to continue bringing world class moments to SA Music.” says Diederik Vos, Marketing Manager for Amstel.
