Listen To Al-Sarah, The American-Based Sudanese Group Performing At Blankets And Wines!

Five days left for arguably the biggest gig in Nairobi this weekend, have you gotten your tickets?

Of course I’m talking about Blankets and Wines, and this one is special because it will feature one of Africa’s renowned vocalist Zahara. Others to grace the Blankets stage will be one of music’s best kept secrets from Sudan but based in America Alsarah. The lead Others who complete the epic line-up include vocalists Dela and Prisca. I guess you are wondering who AlSarah & the Nubatones are. Listen to one of their songs below.

These are the details to Blankets that you need to know. ‘Date: June 2nd 2013 Time: 1:00pm-9pm Venue: Carnivore Grounds, Nairobi.

Blankets & Wine will also be commemorating the June 5th world Environment Day under the theme ‘Think.Eat.Save’ as part of our ongoing ‘Up-Cycling’ project geared towards reducing, recycling and reusing waste and environmental pollution.

For the first time since the inception of the event in 2008, Blankets & Wine will also host a craft fair where various local designer will showcase and sell their locally made wares. This is part of Blankets & Wine’s conscious effort to promote other forms of art at the event apart from music. In the process, we shall also give our audience the opportunity to sample the various talents in Kenya and what they have to offer.
