Samini to kick start tour in Kumasi

Samini recently won the Best Performer award at the 2009 MTV Africa Music Awards.

The much anticipated 'SAMINI XPERIENCE GHANA TOUR 2009' will kick start in Kumasi on November 13.

Between November 13th and December 19, 2009, the multi Ghana Music Awards winner and MOBO African Artiste of the year (2006), will host four big outdoor events in Kumasi, Tamale, Takoradi and Accra.

Final road map for the four-leg inspirational music concert tour is as follow; Northern Sector- Heroes Park, Forecourt of Baba Yara Stadium. Nov. 13, Upper Northern Sector- Tamale Sports Stadium, Nov 28, Central/Western Sector- Takoradi Jubilee Park, Dec. 5 and Southern Sector- Ohene Djan Sports Stadium, Accra on Dec 19, 2009.

With this tour, the 2009 MTV Africa Music Awards Best Performer, seeks to champion 'a sense of achievement' in individuals and encourage all to strive for the ultimate in their professions and in all walks of life.

This theme is vividly captured in his hit song 'Movement', off his latest Dagaare album.

In each sector, the tour moves along with giant mobile stage, high powered Public Address System and state-of-the-art lighting system with special effects.

The team is made up of 70 persons including crew, headline artist, Samini and at least eight (8) heavyweight performers, favourites of the respective regions.

In the Kumasi show on November 13 at the Heroes Park, Samini will be supported by Okyeame Kwame, Lord Kenya, Obrafour, Sakordie, Kwaku Gyasi, R2Beez, Zionites, Skinny Legend and Superbabes, the all-female Dance Crew.

“This is no ordinary gig, it is live, it is life-size and it is the biggest challenge of my career so far. I'm to prove to Ghanaians why I won the MAMA best performer and also to demonstrate my fan base strength, hence the large venues“, says Samini.

The 48-seater M-Plaza tour bus leads a fleet of SUV cars with all the stars on board and arrives in Kumasi at 10am on Thursday, November 12, 2009.

The bus will move around the principal streets of Kumasi before settling at an unannounced hotel. At 6pm on Thursday at the same Hotel in Kumasi, Samini's team and the musicians will brief local press about the next day's show.

With only two Ghana cedis entry fee, Samini fans can enjoy the 5-hour star-studded live Performances at the Heroes Park, Baba Yara Stadium.
