Masike’s manager, Lucky Mazuva said the Mbira Explosions will be held every first Friday of every month at Jazz 24/7 and on Saturdays, she takes her acts to Afro Café.
“The Mbira Explosions are aimed at strengthening Hope’s presence, giving much time to her fans, as she has a unique way of playing the instrument (mbira) on a pure mbira tip, fusing it with all the musical genres,” he said.
“The idea behind the Mbira Explosions is to give back to the fans and lay a platform for continuity, as we ended the year 2016 on a high note.”
Meanwhile, Masike is expected to depart for a month-long tour of India.
