Yay – best news of the week has to be the fact that Showtime Management announced that they will be bringing British singer-songwriter and guitarist James Morrison to SA for a series of concerts in Joburg and Cape Town. Jozi fans – the dates to diarise are Tuesday 22 January and Wednesday 23 January at 20h00 at Montecasino’s Teatro Theatre. James Morrison first arrived on our music scenes 12 years ago and back in 2006, who would have guessed that not only would James be an iconic name touring the globe – but also that he would be setting the precedent for many other singers who now cite him as their inspiration – such as Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran, George Ezra and James Bay to name a few.

If you’re like us, then you probably grew up listening to Johnny Clegg’s music too. After all, the legendary singer was instrumental in shaping South African music to what it is today. So when we heard he will be embarking on his final world tour this year, we couldn’t help feel nostalgic. The iconic South African artist will be performing at the Teatro Theatre in Montecasino for two Johannesburg shows on Saturday 7th July and Sunday 8th July, before moving to Durban for his nationwide leg. The tour will be built around Johnny`s unparalleled repertoire of songs that began with the release of Juluka`s Universal Men in 1979, through to the Savuka years and more recently, his work as a solo artist. Expect to sing and dance the night away to hit songs like, ‘Asimbonanga (Mandela)’, ‘Scatterlings of Africa’, ‘One Life’ and ‘Human’. Guest artists will include the Soweto Gospel Choir. So don’t waste…
