Good thing it’s full blown summer time and what to wear should not be a problem.
Summer is the perfect time to enjoy live music.

As always The Herald Arts crew conducted a survey on some of the events taking place across the country.
Below is a guide on where to go:

Organisers of the event have said that the show will be streamed live to fans in diaspora and those who would not have made it to the event.
“Yes, definitely we will be streaming the event live on the Gateway Stream Music platform. Fans need to download our application so that they can have a chance to see these great musicians in action.
