LONDON-BASED South African singer Nakhane is returning to Mzansi years after Covid-19 hit our shores.
The New Brighton singer will host a show, titled I Am Live, at Constitution Hill, Joburg, on 21 May.
Nakhane said he was excited about being back home, and thanked all parties involved in bringing him back.
“The last time I was home was just before the pandemic, so it’s been a while. I miss South Africa’s energy,” he said.
“That I’ll be performing at a show, too, is an even better gift. Thanks to Concerts SA and partners, the Norwegian Embassy and Samro, for their support in bringing me home for this special moment,” he added.

Bassline creative director Paige Holmes said Nakhane was one of talented musicians who had ever graced the venue.
“Nakhane is truly one of the most extraordinary talents we have ever worked with, and that says a lot, us having been involved in the live music industry for 28 years,” she said.
Founder Brad Holmes said he was excited at the diverse crowd of quality music lovers that was sure to attend the concert.
“Nakhane is culturally relevant, appealing to various subcultures, trendsetters, the LGBTQI community, fashion lovers, diversity as well as inclusion champions and art lovers. We are grateful to our associate partners Castle Lite and BET Africa for making this concert possible,” he said.
Tickets are available for R320 at Howler.
