The Walker’s Tour officially kicked off on Saturday with the Kampala edition which was held at the Garden City Roof Top.
The show was headlined by Sheebah Karungi who delivered an electric performance, taking revelers through her musical journey with some of the biggest hits of her career. From ‘Nakyuka’ to ‘Kwata Bulungi’ coupled with riveting dance moves, the star was a sight to see.
The choice for Sheebah to headline the Kampala leg, and the first edition of the Walkers tour, came as no surprise as the ‘Ice Cream’ hit maker is one of many Ugandan stars that have exemplified the “Keep Walking” mantra.
Sheebah has always talked about her slow but steady journey from the ashes as a backup dancer, to one of the biggest stars and if not the biggest female artist of this generation.
Sheebah’s performance was preceded by the National Walker- Hip Hop Star Navio, who equally brought the house down with hits like ‘Ngalo’ and crowed favorite “Njogereza”.
The event was hosted by another Walker- the ever-energetic Ms Deedan, who engaged the audience throughout the show.
DJ Slick Stuart, also a Walker, and DJ Sesse kept the ecstatic crowd on their feet, as they enjoyed themselves on the evening.
The event was the first edition of the Walkers tour, that was born out of the
global “To the Ones who” campaign, that was launched recently, to celebrate and shine a light on the youth that have exemplified Johnnie Walkers “Keep Walking” Mantra.
The next stop for the Walkers tour will be Mbarara on Saturday April 23rd.
