According to Capricorn FM Station Manager, Rofhiwa Tholi B Bologo, Limpopo is a vibrant and culturally rich province, awash with local and national musical culture featured in the Lifestyle and LMF programme.
“The calibre of the artists we have put together for this inaugural festival were exceptional, catering to a variety of musical tastes. We have rolled out the red carpet for musical fans in anticipation of a great day and we were not disappointed,” said Bologo.
Penny Penny said being invited to perform at the Capricorn FM Lifestyle and Music Festival shows respect and love from Capricorn FM. “Although we don’t get as many invites from other provinces, it makes me glad that Capricorn FM sees me as a legend and invited me to perform,” he said.
