The band consists of Zimbabwean-born twins, Verbaleyes and Native Wit in music circles and their childhood friend Klue, a New Zealander with Eritrean roots.
Zimbabwean born Bheki Mkwananzi (Native Wit) said about the event: ‘It's a huge honour for us and we're really excited to be playing at HIFA. My brother and I were born in Harare but have lived most of our lives in Australia so for us to be able to come back to the place it started through playing music is very special. We can't wait to get over there and share our music with everybody.’
True Vibenation will perform on the ZOL main stage on Wednesday April 29 at 10pm on CABS Day.
The group blends together hip hop, Afro-beat, jazz, dubstep, soul, Latin and electronic music to create a unique but distinctly Australian sound.
It incorporates instrumental music with traditional turntable beats. With self-made instruments horn blowing, they excite crowds with their infectious energy.
Australian ambassador-designate, Suzanne McCourt, said: ‘We can’t wait for Harare to enjoy the amazing True Vibenation experience. They are a wonderful example of the strong ties between Zimbabwe and Australia and their live show is sure to wow the audience and get people moving.’
