(Nkululeko
Freeman Gumede)
In association with Concerts SA, iSupport
Music Business presents Freeman and the Free-men live in concert in
Hammarsdale. Bassist Nkululeko Freeman Gumede and his band will visit Seamen’s
Corner on June 2, 2018.
For this performance, bassist Gumede will
be accompanied by Lesedi Tlholoe on drums, Obakeng Thamage on keys, Sinalo Zulu
on trumpet, Kgeti Nkotsi on trombone, Nick Pitman on guitar and Dalisu Ndlazi
on bass guitar.
“I want people to experience liberty in
abundance through my music,” says Gumede. “I am happy to be coming to Hammarsdale
to present my music to the people of the soil. I will bring my own composed
music and also some covers. Our band aims to spread freedom through music, so I
would like the audience to experience this freedom with me.”
Having trained at KCAP Arts Centre in
KwaMashu as well as at the BAT Centre and exploring his passion for gospel, pop
and jazz music throughout the past years, the Durban-based bass player Gumede
has already shared stages with big names such as Jimmy Dludlu, Lira, the late
Bra Hugh Masekela, Caiphus Semenya, Swazi Dlamini, Judith Sephuma, S’fiso
Ncwane and many more. While he is currently supporting acts like Kyle Deutsch,
Thina Zungu, DJ LeSoul and Blvck Crystals and studying towards a Music Degree
at UKZN, Freeman also expresses himself through compositions of his own.
