The show is scheduled for May 27 in Manchester. When reached for comment Dlamini shared with this publication that tickets for the show retailed at 15 Pounds which is equivalent to E361.65 and it sold out within weeks after release.
The trio left the kingdom on March 6; their first stop was in Dubai, where they had their first show before continuing to Birmingham in the UK.

Perform
“The three of us were fresh from releasing our latest project when we were invited to perform in Dubai and the UK and we have been here ever since. Frans Dlamini released a song titled ‘Noma Indlela Inohlupho’, Mancoba released one titled ‘Ngenelela Kulesimo’ all produced in Eswatini and Thabile recorded a full album at Music Is Life Studios in Johannesburg, which has not been released but it is being promoted,” said Dlamini.
The trip is courtesy of Makholisa Promotions, which is a music production company based in Zimbabwe and the organiser invited them because he loved what the trio showcased two years prior, when they were invited to Zimbabwe, Bulawayo.
The aim of the project is to promote the origin of artists, where they come from. The initiative was originally started in Zimbabwe but when COVID-19 hit, everything came to a halt. The targeted places are churches, radio stations and live shows where they are able to reach a large audience at the same time.
“We have had three live shows ever since leaving home, Eswatini including Dubai, South End on sea and Stock and our last one will be in Birmingham,” further said Dlamini.
The big and known churches that they have visited include Leeds in London, Manchester and Wolverhampton and the trio will be jetting back to the kingdom on June 2.
