The energy, exhilarating performances, pomp and color was everything those that attended this year’s Nile Gold Jazz and Soul Safari show were served on Saturday at the Lugogo Cricket Oval.
Twenty years ago after touching ground in Uganda, British-reggae icon Maxi Priest added a chapter on his legacy again when he thrilled fans on Saturday at the well-attended concert.
Starting off with a signature performance was the Legendary Moses Matovu of the renowned Afrigo Band and was joined by Tony Ssenkebejje, Lillian Mbabazi and Michael Kitanda sending a chill spine through the revelers.
What left a mark and made an outstanding sight at the Nile Gold Jazz Soul and Safari was the influx of ushers that were at the event. Dazzling ushers clad in Golden Yellow and others in black jumpsuits left many aged cooperates ogling at what they had to optically offer.
Lovely women that vividly seemed in their second and third-year tenures at campus swayed their behinds as they delivered drinks to the VIP tables as others ushered in guests. From the look of things, the revelers in the VIP had a great experience both on stage and off stage. The soupy gals were there to serve the New Nile Gold that was unveiled.
As the grounds slowly filled up, sensational saxophonist and flute player Jackiem Joyner alongside Soul Funky Trumpeter Lin Rountree gave revelers a fine blend of jazz and soul with a greatly amazing band. By the end of their tenure on stage, the VIP section was filled up to brim.
At about 11:15pm Reggae icon Maxi Priest stepped on stage amidst wild cheers sending the oval into a frenzy. Many danced along to his renowned songs like “Close To You,” “Just A Little Bit,” and “World Wide,”. The ordinary section seemed to love and understand the music more hence did not see the need of staying seated but grooved along.
The jazz fest that extended till a few minutes past midnight was a well-attended show and thanks to Nile Gold, drinks were on the house.
