Uganda’s live music scene has been enjoying a strong run of major concerts, and Azawi believes the packed venues are proof that Ugandans still have plenty of love for their musicians.
The singer has now turned that attention to her Swangz Avenue label mate, Vinka, who is preparing for her maiden concert later this week.
In a post on X, Azawi thanked Ugandans for supporting local musicians, saying the recent sold-out shows are proof of the public’s “undeniable love” for homegrown talent.
Ugandans, thank you for supporting us. All these sold-out shows are proof of your undeniable love. Temujja nga okwo.
Azawi did not name any particular concert in her message, but her comments come after a busy stretch on Uganda’s live music calendar.
Ray G’s “Tuze Kololo” concert took place on August 7 at the Kololo Independence Grounds, followed a week later by King Saha’s “Tondeka Ekololo Festival” at the same venue on August 14.
Both shows attracted massive crowds, adding to the growing excitement around live music in Kampala.
With the concert momentum still high, Azawi pointed fans toward the next big show on the calendar: Vinka Live & Loud.
Vinka on next on 21st August, Lugogo Cricket Oval.
Vinka will take over the Lugogo Cricket Oval on Friday, August 21, for her first-ever concert.
The show, organized by Swangz Avenue, marks a major milestone for the singer, who has built her career over the years with a string of hit songs.
