STAR of the Month Govana is making final preparatio­ns for a five-city tour of the United Kingdom. The tour is expected to run between October 3 and October 14. The dancehall artiste had revealed plans to do a tour during his STAR of the Month interview, but did not go into details until now. The Champ deejay is expected to make stops in Manchester, Gloucester, London, Luton, and Wolverhamp­ton during his twoweek stay in the UK. Speaking with THE STAR about the tour, the Bake Bean deejay revealed that this would be his first trip to the UK and said he is ready to hit the road and is promising nothing but the best to his fans. “This being my first time in the UK, I can’t bring anything less than my ‘A’ game. The fans can expect high-energy performanc­es and lots of crowd interactio­n,” he said. “I understand from the promoters that the fans are looking forward to seeing me, and I am certainly looking forward to seeing them as well. You know anywhere the Genna step is just niceness, so we going to have a nice time and a great vibe.”

VERY ENERGETIC

Because it would be his maiden UK trip, Govana said he is looking forward to feeding off the energy of the guests.

“It should be very energetic to say the least. I hear everybody is up and ready for the show, so me up and ready too. I will be bringing my energy and I will be feeding off the people’s energy as well,” he said.

Govana, who has been dominating the local music scene in recent times, has also been enjoying some success on the internatio­nal market.

He is hoping to use this tour to cement his place as one of the artistes people should pay more attention to on that side of the world. He is also expected to use the tour to expand his fan base.

Based on the reaction to the news of the tour, the artiste said he is looking forward to the latter pointing out that new fans get him excited about the future.

While some of his older tracks continue to dominate local and internatio­nal airwaves, the entertaine­r has released two new singles, Inna Di Sky and All Of It.

The tracks come courtesy of Armzhouse Records and Emudio Records, respective­ly. Govana also continues work on his upcoming EP.
