Upcoming musician Linda Chikomo (pictured below) has set March 14 as the date for the launch of her debut album “Nguva Yenyasha”. Chikomo, who is based in the United Kingdom, said she was happy that people back home are supporting her. Speaking through her manager, Enock Kamhiriri, she said they have plans to come and launch the album in Zimbabwe.

“The support from the people back home is overwhelming and we cannot just launch the album here (in UK) without having another launch in Zimbabwe,” he said.

Kamhiriri, who doubles as manager and producer, said his studio, Divine Healing Studios, will make sure Zimbabweans abroad will lift the flag high with their music.

“There are a number of artistes we are working with and we want the world to know that we have got talent in Zimbabwe,” he said.

He said they have laid the ground the groundwork for the album.

“We have laid the groundwork for the new release and we are hopeful that it will do well,” he said.

Musicians Linda Neza, Pineal Munatsi of the “Zviri Kufaya NdiMwari” fame, Mai Tongogara of the “Ndisimbiseiwo” fame and Timothy Ngwenya are set to perform at the launch.

All the artistes have promised to support her so that they can lift the flag of the country high.

“As Zimbabweans based in UK we work as one and we will support her so that we lift the flag of the country high,” said Munatsi.

Amai Tongogara, who is currently riding high with her new album “Ndisimbisewo”, said they would give her support.

“We work together and we are hopeful that people will accept the album so that we raise the Zimbabwean flag high,” she said.

Chikomo (32) was born in Harare where she did her primary and secondary education before relocating to UK in 2002.
