Dhewa to rekindle romance with fans

countrywide tour to reignite his romance with his fans.
Squashing rumours on his alleged ill-health, Dhewa said he had just taken time off the stage to go for routine check ups.
“I had gone for a routine check up, I am fine and raring to go,” he said in a telephone interview from his base this week.
He has since lined up two shows this weekend in Kadoma and Harare.
Tonight Dhewa will rock Kadoma, when he takes his act to the Grand Hotel.
He will share the stage with the rising Chitungwiza bassist Roderick Chomudhara, reputed for steering the Tembo Brothers ship after John Chibadura passed on.
And just to prove to his fans that he is fit, Dhewa will tomorrow night thrill fans at the Extra Mile Leisure Centre along Masvingo Road, where most of the revellers are expected to be tobacco farmers, who are on cloud nine, thanks to their tobacco sales.
But of course with Dhewa’s fan base, it will be a mixed bag of both young executives and the dealers now sprouted around the country.
First Farai, Chomudhara and Apama Dance group would support him, in yet another anticipated encounter.
Dhewa, who boasts a litany of hit albums to his name that include “Samanyemba”, “Muridzi Wenyaya” and his latest offering, “Toita Basa” promised to rock his fans in a big way.
Although in some countries Friday the 13th is a day associated with bad luck and misfortune, in Zimbabwe it is “Woza Friday” as usual with a series of shows lined up across the country.
Alick Macheso – Matombo Charehwa Night Club, Budiriro 2
High-riding Alick Macheso, on top of his game at the moment, will tomorrow night invade Matombo Charehwa Night Club in Budiriro 2.
This is one of Extrabasso’s not-to-be-missed shows at the joint that has been undergoing renovations recently following its change of ownership after music promoter Joseph Munyebvu of Joe Promotions acquired the joint from its previous owner.
“This (the acquisition) is one big step towards our mission of promoting artistes since they will have a place they will call their home ground,” said Munyebvu.
Macheso will without doubt churn out hits from his latest album, “Zvinoda Kutendwa” such as “Tafadzwa,” “Chimoko Changu” and “Nguva Yekutenda” as well as others from his previous offerings.
He will be supported by the young and talented Dendera prodigy, Tryson Chimbetu.
