NJE AND MAJOZI TO PERFORM AT SPAR WOMEN'S 10/5KM FINISH ON JUNE 7
The reward for all the ladies competing in this year’s SPAR Women’s Race on Sunday 7 June is the live music at the festive finishing area.
The two acts performing are proudly home grown talents. Entertaining a sea of ladies is the afro, funk, rock band, Nje together with Indie-folk star, Majozi.
Nje, meaning ‘just’ has been hitting the air waves since 2012. Lead by the beautiful vocalist, Portia Malunga Rowling, she performs with bassist Rogan van den Berg, drummer Gary Parker and guitarist Gregan Aherin. The foursome have graced the stage at venues such as Splashy Fen, Smoking Dragon, Live TheVenue, The Winston, The Wavehouse and now will be delighting the crowds at Sahara Stadium, Kingsmead. With one album under their belt, the afro, funk, rock band will be getting the ladies into the groove, singing their most popular single, Gazi Lami which has been featured on the SA Top 20 Countdown.
Following Nje is local singer, Majozi. The Indie-folk performer claims his music has subtle influences of electro. With his hit single titled ‘The River’ it is apt that he will be performing to a sea of beautiful ladies clad in the pink race t-shirts in the finishing area. Majozi has had the opportunity of opening for huge names such as The Lumineers, Yoav, Zebra and Giraffe, Gangs of Ballet and Matthew Mole.
Ladies running the SPAR Women’s Race are in for a treat after their run, plus there are also over R65 000 in lucky draw prizes to be won including getaways to Springbok Lodge and Elephant Rock Private Safari Lodge within the Nambiti Private Game Reserve, near Ladysmith, Montusi Mountain Lodge in the Amphitheatre of the Drakensberg and Fordoun Hotel and Spa in the Midlands .
