Friday Night Live with BANNED FROM THE LAND

21 March @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm

R100 – R150
Friday Night Live is a series of beautiful, intimate performances from some of the most exciting talent Cape Town and South Africa has to offer, hosted at the KAYA Café. Friday Night Live is an event for performers to take in their own direction, creating an environment for audiences to engage deeply with the music, the meaning, and the people behind it all.

Celebrating African Identity Through Music and Activism: BANNED FROM THE LAND is a groundbreaking South African music duo from the Eastern Cape, comprised of Amandla Akhona and Xhanti Nokwali. We reimagine traditional African music by blending indigenous instruments with contemporary sounds, creating a unique fusion that resonates with both heritage and modernity.

Our showcase forms part of the I’M WITH THE BANNED interprovincial tour, a fundraising initiative to support the recording of our debut EP in April. The tour’s title reflects solidarity and honours the South Africans who have fought tirelessly for equality and land rights.

Through our music, we aim to challenge limiting narratives by elevating stories rooted in indigenous knowledge. These stories offer powerful perspectives for interpreting today’s world while celebrating the richness of African identity and resilience.

Join us in this celebration of music, culture, and activism as we speak to the heart of our shared heritage.

Door tickets will cost R150, but we cannot guarantee availability so buy your ticket online to avoid disappointment!
