adminMiguel, not to be confused with the American R‘n’B singer, is the World Music Crossroads public relations officer who volunteered his services to assist local artistes who lack international marketing strategies.
“Zimbabwean music has potential to break international barriers if the local musicians come together to foster the common cause of changing structures. There is a lot to be done if Zimbabweans are to make it worldwide and share ideas with established musicians. There is talent and the future is bright for Zimbabweans,” said Carbalto.
Some of the bands expected to participate include Club Shanga, Gwarimba, Savannah Afros and Tanga wekwaSando. Music Crossroads has gained so much popularity both locally and internationally.
Tanga wekwaSando said “One Mic sessions” were ideal for local artsites.
“We could be big names or music households locally, but internationally we fall far short of expectations,” said Tanga.
Some of the activities lined up include music teachers and coaches delivering lectures to musicians on how to use latest music software and websites.
