Zimbabwe’s guitarist, singer and song writer Tariro NeGitare is slated to perform in Bulawayo and Victoria Falls as part of her Up Close and Personal Sessions.
She will perform at the Rainbow Hotel in Bulawayo on today July, 22 and in Victoria Falls tomorrow July 23.
“I am really excited to be back in Bulawayo. The first time I performed here as a solo artist was in July 2014, and the people of Bulawayo showed so much love”, Tariro said.
She said since it will be her first time performing in Victoria Falls she is excited to get up close and personal with her fans in the resort town.
“The Up Close and Personal Sessions have been happening in Harare, and I am excited to be taking them out of the capital city to other places across Zimbabwe”, she added.
The Up Close and Personal Sessions are meant to get Tariro’s fans interacting with her, gain a better understanding on song writing and request some of their favorite tracks from her previous albums.
Tariro’s music has a strong afro-soul feel and exudes influences from artists like Oliver Mtukudzi, Sara Tavare and Tracy Chapman, amongst others.
The musician has shared the stage with Zimbabwean artists such as Oliver Mtukudzi, Stella Chiweshe, Jah Prayza, Victor Kunonga, and Nobuntu.
In 2014 she was a curtain-raiser for International artist Bryan Adams. She also warmed up the stage for South African accapella group Ladysmith Black Mambazo at the Spring Strings Festival.
To date Tariro has collaborated with musicians Simphiwe Dana, Zahara, UK based guitarist Josephine and German bands, Favo and Jamaram, just to mention a few.
She is expected to give her fans top notch performances in her Up Close and Personal Sessions. “I look forward to interacting with the audiences and share my musical prowess on a one on one session”, she said.
