Goethe-Institut's - The Jam

On the fourth of October, Goethe Institut set up a much needed end of the week event showcasing Kenyan talent through a concert curated by Tangaza magazine. The whole set up was meant to vibe and  be acquainted with three of our very own Kenyan talent. 

The vibe was already set from beginning as the DJ, DJ Dauudi.O, welcomed people coming in with a good mix of songs that made the energy just right for future performances, y'know setting the mood😂. As did the MC's ,Corrine Kahi and Ivix D.Kioi who were very engaging with the crowd in preparation for the upcoming performances and got everyone's spirit up and excited.

There were also refreshments offered by Die Bar.ist.A which included some pretty good cocktails y'know, to start the weekend right😅 and capturing the whole event through his lens was Nairobi Phoet. 

The first performance was by the lovely Njeri and her pianist Wacuka. She had very good crowd engagement encouraging sing alongs here and there which were much appreciated. She also covered several songs beautifully as well as singing some of her original songs some even unreleased so it was a real treat. Some would say, she's captured heartbreaks to a tea😅. So if you are going through something definitely check her out for some relatability😂.

She also brought out another artist Muthoka who had an angelic voice and both of them singing together is definitely a collab you didn't know you needed. Be on the lookout for future projects by them two. We can't waitt!!

Muthaka was a much anticipated act and you could understand why. She took over the stage like it was her own and the crowd was definitely with it. The band ,Vibe Curators, were also part of this magical experience as they were so in sync and brought the whole act together. Overall you could see they were prepared to give a good performance and they did. 

After the performances, people concluded the night with DJ Dauudi.O who definitely gave the event the ending it deserves.

Overall, I would say the event was a really good experience and a pretty great idea to celebrate Kenyan talent as a whole and a great place to make new friendships or network if you want to be a part of the entertainment field . I look forward to such future events and to discover and vibe with our very own talent.
