Gaobakwe, SA Tourism, Bantwini, team up for Independence festival

In an effort to add life to Gaborone's Independence celebrations at the end of this month, entertainment provider, Bissau Gaobakwe of 63 Entertainment, has teamed up with South Africa Tourism and Afro House sensation Zakes Bantwini to give Gaborone revellers a show to remember on Independence eve. The show will also feature another South African House sensation Black Coffee.

To add spice, Bantwini along with local players like Zeus, Scar and others yet to be identified, have been in the studio in Gaborone this week, recording a special album that will be on sale at the September 29 music concert to be held at the Gaborone International Convention Centre (GICC) where 2,000 copies will be distributed.

According to Bantwini, the CD will have new music and remixes that will be specially performed for the Gaborone audience on that day. "The CD will not be released for television or radio, it is specially for the fans who will be at the show, as more of a souvenir," he adds with a bright smile.  Gaobakwe, however, adds that they will explore ways of making the special CD music available as downloads through a local cellular network.
