South African Group TKZee Set for June Blankets and Wine

Following the cancellation of this month’s Blankets and Wine edition which was previously set for the 5th of May 2012 at its usual venue of the Leisure Gardens in Nairobi, the organizers of what is arguably East Africa’s permier afro fusion event have just revealed the headliners of the June Edition.

Set to make their second appearance in the country, after a Nation FM (Now Easy FM) sponsored gig in 2000, TKZee will be in the country for the June Edition of Blankets and Wine in what is set to be another thrilling South African performance at the event. Previous performers from the south have included Lira, Oliver Mtukudzi and even Liquid Deep.

TKZee are a group of three high school friends, Tokollo Tshabalala, Kabello Mabalane and Zwai Bala who are famed for their infectious Kwaito music. The trio performed at the 2010 FIFA World Cup which was held in their country and have been popular since the late 90s when they shot to fame with their Phalafala and Shibobo singles.

TKZee have had a total of seven successful albums, with the latest being ‘Coming Home’ in 2009.
