If you’re like us, then you probably grew up listening to Johnny Clegg’s music too. After all, the legendary singer was instrumental in shaping South African music to what it is today. So when we heard he will be embarking on his final world tour this year, we couldn’t help feel nostalgic. The iconic South African artist will be performing at the Teatro Theatre in Montecasino for two Johannesburg shows on Saturday 7th July and Sunday 8th July, before moving to Durban for his nationwide leg. The tour will be built around Johnny`s unparalleled repertoire of songs that began with the release of Juluka`s Universal Men in 1979, through to the Savuka years and more recently, his work as a solo artist. Expect to sing and dance the night away to hit songs like, ‘Asimbonanga (Mandela)’, ‘Scatterlings of Africa’, ‘One Life’ and ‘Human’. Guest artists will include the Soweto Gospel Choir. So don’t waste…

For those of you who don’t know, Mishqah first graced our small screens as the role of Vania in the popular soapie, Skeem Saam and as Kris Laurenson in the 2014 SABC youth drama series, Snake Park.
