DBN Gogo To Perform Alongside American Singer At Rocking the Daisies 2022. Rocking the Daisies has revealed the acts for this year’s festival. The iconic music festival announced its return earlier this month after a two-year hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic. The festival will take place in both Cape Town and Johannesburg over the weekend on the 7th and 9th if October.
Amapiano star DBN Gogo has been announced as one of the local acts set to perform at the event. She will perform alongside American R&B and neo-soul singer Kehlani, who has been announced as the second international act at the 2022 edition of Rocking the Daisies. The Distraction singer joins previous acts announced Clean Bandit, and a slew of local talent, including BLXCKIE, Will Linley, Sun El Musician, Focalistic, TxC, Sio, Matthew Mole, Aymos, Nasty C and Kid Fonque on the lineup. Kehlani’s upcoming performance at Rocking the Daisies 2022 will mark their first time performing on the African continent.
“Regarded as one of the leaders of the contemporary R&B garde, Kehlani’s repertoire, at just 27 years old, is something to marvel at. Receiving her start on American Idol as part of a girl band in 2011, just three years later, Kehlani went on to drop their debut solo album SweetSexySavage and subsequently find their way to numerous collaborations with names such as Charlie Puth, Cardi B, Ty Dolla Sign, Eminem, Chance the Rapper, Justin Bieber, Zayne Malik and Musiq Soulchild (to name a few) in the years to follow,” reads a press release.
“We are excited about Kehlani’s presence at this year’s festival because they are a one-of-a-kind talent and an unbelievably spirited performer with an incredible collection of music that resonates with audiences all over the world,” says Steyn Entertainment general manager Shannon Valstar.
