CHIZI’S COMEBACK

Architect and singer Dan ‘Chizi’ Aceda played at his first ever concert on Saturday 15 at Blue Times restaurant, Museum Hill. The show dubbed Sauti Ya Simba is part of the preparations for the release of his second album due out later in the year. The show marked the comeback of the Afro fusion musician who hasn’t held any concerts since December 2008.
“I haven’t played this whole year, been writing new material and preparing for the album, looking forward to it. I have missed the stage.

Chizi’s plans for new single’s popularity

Architect and singer Dan ‘Chizi’ Aceda released his long awaited single Saida this week. This marked the beginning of a partnership between him and the Kenya Data Networks. The video to the song was made available for free viewing at www.kikasha.com, a new and innovative YouTube style website that is specifically meant for hosting Kenyan content.
The song, produced by Robert ‘R Kay’ Kamanzi is the lead single off Chizi’s sophomore album set for a June release. Chizi, whose song-writing prowess is increasingly gaining the attention that it deserves, wrote it.
This makes Chizi the first Kenyan artiste to successfully execute an online release of a single – on a Kenya-centric site.
