The news of this concert is most welcome for not only those SA Jazz lovers living out of Mzanzi – expats and jazz loving Namibians alike will get a good dose of soulful African Jazz music this weekend in the capital. This year’s concert features two of the finest musicians, Zamajobe and the Moreira Project in addition to some Namibian local talent, maintaining a 50/50 split on the line-up.
