Nigerian singer Timaya to Perform at Rwanda’s Music Festival
Nigerian singer Timaya is set to arrive Rwanda ahead of the return Kigali Jazz Junction scheduled for March 25.
The ‘Gra Gra’ singer who has been more than a decade long in the African music scene will rehearse with the KJJ resident band, the Neptunez Band.
According to Remmygious Lubega of RG Consult, which organises what used to be a monthly musical show, relaunching it with Timaya at Canal Olympia will set the momentum for the showbiz industry and rekindle good memories for music lovers.
“We expect it to be a great show, bringing together all generations because Timaya has been at it for a while now, both young and old know him. We will also have Okkama, one of the most promising young artistes in Rwanda,”
“We will have talented upcoming singer Bwiza as a guest performer while the Neptunez Band has been working day and night to perfect the tunes. We really expect a spectacular show,” Lubega said.
Timaya, real name Inetimi Timaya Odon, has been one of the most consistent Nigerian artistes of the modern era, having broken out on the scene in 2005 and going on to establish himself as one of the leading Afro-dancehall singers on the continent.
