Music lovers can claim a free digital pass here. The event will start at 7pm CAT and can be viewed on several platforms, including the MTN Bushfire Facebook page and YouTube channel, as well as eSwatini TV.
Meanwhile, The Collab featured a short documentary presenting a new song and exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of Sands and The One Who Sings, better known to many as Zolani Mahola of Freshlyground fame. The event was designed to inspire and support the new creative process and makes part of the MTN Bushfire 2021 Digital Series programme. It included an exclusive Q&A session and live acoustic performance at the iconic House On Fire amphitheatre in Malkerns, eSwatini.
