Big Folk Africa at Daisy Jones - Sunday 3 August 2025

🎤 Artist Spotlight: Stanley Sibande

Zambian-born, South Africa-based Stanley Sibande blends raw emotion with powerful acoustic energy. Inspired by Hozier, Bastille & Linkin Park, his sound fuses haunting indie rock with alt-pop melodies—topped with gritty vocals and narrative lyrics that dive deep into the human condition. Think post-grunge soul with an acoustic heart. 💥🎶

Big Folk Africa at Daisy Jones - Sunday 3 August 2025

🎶 Artist Spotlight: Divine Mahara
Winner of Zimbabwe’s Got Talent in 2014, Divine Mahara is a genre-blending force, fusing Folk, Afropop, Americana, and the rhythms of his Zimbabwean roots into soul-stirring acoustic sounds. 🎸✨

As an artist, he's been compared to Marvin Gaye and Oliver Mtukudzi, and has wowed global stages — from TV and radio to a historic in-flight performance, silent disco style at 36,000 feet (yes, really!).

Divine isn’t just a singer—he’s a storyteller with heart, heritage, and a voice that moves.
