In a captivating display of musical prowess, Namibian Afro-reggae legend Ras Sheehama headlined the July edition of the Franco-Namibian Cultural Centre's (FNCC) Acoustic Friday on 26 July.

The evening was an immersive experience, drawing attendees into the soulful world of Sheehama’s acoustic melodies. A cornerstone of the Namibian music industry, the musician has long been celebrated for his outstanding compositions. His lyrics, rich with consciousness and integrity, offer sharp social observations and convey messages of peace, love and wisdom.

As he took the stage with his live band, the audience was treated to a seamless blend of socio-political criticism and heartfelt humanity through his set, which spanned about an hour.

The event, hosted by the charismatic Lady Nay, provided an intimate setting for Sheehama’s performance. The venue served as the perfect backdrop for the evening's serene yet powerful musical journey.

Supporting the legendary artist was the dynamic group Savannah Afros, whose performance added a vibrant layer to the night.

Acoustic Friday, a monthly fixture at the FNCC, continues to offer a platform for artists like Sheehama, ensuring that Namibian music and culture resonate with both local and international audiences. Namibian Sun was there to capture these moments...
