HARARE – International music superstar Jennifer Rush is set to hold a concert in Harare as part of her southern African tour in October and November.
With a series of concerts in South Africa, Namibia and Zimbabwe, the 80s icon is linking the tour with the 30th anniversary of her mega hit The Power Of Love, listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the best-selling single by a female solo artist in the history of British pop.
Announcing that the Harare concert will take place on Friday, October 23, Sound Event Management’s Minky Walters said the popularity of 80s music among Zimbabweans of all ages would mean great local interest in the show, which will also feature a number of local performers on stage in support of the headline star.
Patience Musa and Macy Huber will sing as openers with local band Cynergy, while singers Prudence Katomeni -Mbofana and Daniel Jenkins will join the superstar on stage during her performance.
During her career, Rush sold over 50 million albums and has collaborated with other international stars, including Elton John, Michael Bolton, Jose Carreras and Placido Domingo. Her other familiar hits include Ring Of Ice, Madonna’s Eyes and Destiny.
“Coming to southern Africa is a dream come true. I love it here and it is a great way to celebrate three decades since my first major hit,’ she said.
“I am excited to be starting my world tour in Southern Africa and I always draw inspiration from this beautiful part of the world.”
