University students yet again have another exciting entertainment schedule ahead of them. After the successful first episode, Coca-Cola on Saturday launched Season Two of their Annual Musical TV show- Coke Studio. This show will air every Saturday at 8pm.
Brandon Ssemanda, Coca-Cola Brand Manager revealed that the soft drink beverage will have university activations throughout the country. “As part of efforts to engage the Company’s youthful audience, Coke Studio will be shown in all the major universities countrywide. He added; “We shall have live viewings of the various Coke Studio episodes that will include performances from the Coke Studio Ugandan representatives as well as other top Ugandan performers.”
Coke Studio is a music television series which features live studio-recorded music performances by various artists and is a local brand product of Coca-Cola. This one of a kind music show focuses on a fusion of the diverse musical influences in Africa, as well as contemporary hip hop, rock and pop music. The show provides a platform for renowned as well as upcoming and less mainstream artists, of various genres, regions and languages, to collaborate musically in live studio recording sessions.
This year, two Ugandan music stars – Navio and Jackie Chandiru – will feature on the show for the first time, together with Lillian Mbabazi from the last season. They will be joining an equally exciting line up of 19 other artists (22 artistes in total) from 7 other countries across Africa to a state-of-the-art studio to create a modern and authentic African sound through inter-cultural musical fusion.
