It’s all happening in Swaziland
Those of you that know us well know that we’re mad about Swaziland (no bias of course), particularly the mind-blowing venue House on Fire. It’s all happening next weekend with both DJ Fresh (an old school fave of ours) and the Brazilian carnival band Napalma (go to the delicious website to hear their infectious tribal beats). For a weekend away from the Jozi rush but still wanting a bit of a party namethrowing experience up close with the people – how about a trip to the gorgeous mountain kingdom? It’s a neat 3 and a bit drive. Still enough time to plan! House on Fire are able to make accommodation arrangements for you – come on – get that stamp in your passport. We heart Swaziland.
Info: It’s Carnival time at House on Fire with the imminent arrival of Brazilian Carnival Percussion group, Napalma, on Sat 2nd of June – Napalma share the stage with 5fm’s Dj Fresh. NAPALMA’s amazing sound incorporates beats and melodies from electronic programming, vocals from exotic East Africa and hypnotic djembe drumming…what a package!
Put all this together and you get an incredibly energetic set that defies obvious musical classification…!!!!!!!. Napalma are touring South Africa and Mozambique having performed in major festivals all over the world
