Submitted by ingenium
on Wed, 22/12/2021 - 6:08pm

Sorry to say that the Kanda Bongo Man show set for the hall on September 10th has been postponed as Kanda has had to have an operation. Nothing serious but he will be out of action for 6 weeks.

The good news is that it has been re arranged for Wednesday 22nd December. A Cow Muck Congo Kanda Christmas Party.

This time he will bringing with him, for a launch party, his brand new CD which is a live recording of his previous visit to Uffington. If you were there you will remember what a fine night it was and to have it captured on record to listen to again is a real treat. You might even be able to hear yourself cheering between songs.

If you don't know who Kanda is, he gave the world the kwasa kwasa dance and popularised the African dance music known as soukous. He has played all over the globe and is a hero throughout the continent of Africa.

Tickets are £17 each from 820282 or the Cow Muck Promotions page on Facebook (click). Also available from Uffington Stores.
