Simphiwe Dana will be celebrating her 10-year
anniversary with a stunning performance held at the Bassline in Johannesburg on
the 25th April 2015.
Kaya FM is honoured to be associated
with Simphiwe’s illustrious 10 year music career. The station has been part of
her journey since her debut album Zandisile.
Kaya FM played a significant role in
giving her music air-play and in 2005 when Simphiwe won her first SAMA the
radio station was there celebrating with her.
“The social activist within Simphiwe is
what caught my attention many years ago when we first met. She epitomises the Afropolitan women we strive
to celebrate on a daily basis at Kaya FM. Dana’s timeless music has a strong social
awakening which will remain relevant and celebrated for many more years to come
in South Africa” said
Greg Maloka, Managing Director at Kaya FM.
Simphiwe Dana is delighted with the Kaya
Fm media partnership and has chosen to return to The Bassline for this commemorative
event given that she first launched her platinum selling debut album at the
venue a decade ago.
Simphiwe Dana will be performing material
off her latest SAMAXXI Nominated album Firebrand (Best Female Artist and Best African Adult Album) as
well as all time favourites.
“Music has allowed me
voice my opinions about the world I live in, and I am just truly grateful that
the continent has been so receptive to my sound and story. Kaya FM has always been a major supporter of
my music. Our brands are very similar in
that we speak to the progressive, socially conscious citizen." says
