The Very Best's Esau Mwamwaya and Johan Hugo
Malawian singer Esau Mwamwaya and Swedish producer Johan Hugo, better known as The Very Best, put out one of our favorite albums last year. Surprisingly, they’ve never performed in South Africa.
Later this month The Very Best are hitting the road in South Africa with Mumford & Sons. While they’re in Cape Town, Esau and Johan are playing a show at The Assembly hosted by our friends from YOH!, Starving Artists and The R.C.M.
They'll be joined that night by Senegalese legend and TVB collaborator Baaba Maal and Mumford & Sons guitarist Winston Marshall, DJing under his pseudonym, ‘Winston Marshall Presents the Floppy Disc Journey Through The Dark Incontinence’. Cape Town-based acts The Aztec Sapphire, The Liminals, ORACLES and Maxime Alexander will also perform.
