Nana Quame Presents ?Soja? Tour

Nana Quame According to most people, you can unfailingly find at least two things at a show: ?a good time and many girls.? That is exactly how Nana Quame?s ?Soja? tour in aid of the needy children will be.

Come March 11, the ?Soja train? will take its first step to Bolgatanga precisely the Catering Guest House where Nana Quame -the man with the silky voice- will turn the whole place upside down with uplifting tunes on his current album.

12th March will be something else at Picorna in Tamale as he moves an expected crowd of about 1,500 to their feet with tracks like ?Asemsebe? and ?Soja Alafia? alongside performances from big artistes like Obrafour, Slim Busterr, Castro, Tinny, Okyeame Quame, Lucky Mensah, 4x4, Nana Acheampong and Kontihene.

All you out there in Sunyani, never think you have been left out! Meet Nana Quame at the Town Hall on March 18 together with most of the sensational artistes in Ghana. In fact, that day is definitely going to be a day to remember.

On 19th March, Town Hall in Techiman will be on fire and if possible tear apart as the unstoppable singer and charismatic figure takes the stage and punish the will-be sweaty and ecstatic crowd with his lovely tunes.

During an interview with some of the people in Dormaa, this is what they had to say; ?We can?t wait to see him perform on the 20th March at Town Hall. Even if he is going to charge 500,000 cedis as the gate fee, we are ready to pay. We just want to have his autograph and a glimpse of him?.

The 19-city tour spectacular will hit Obuasi on 26th March at the A.G.C Club House and rock the socks off thousands of music fanatics in the process. Thousands of Ghanaians- fans of all styles, shapes and colours are expected to pack the Sky Forecourt in Takoradi for the widely acclaimed ?Soja? tour on 28th March.

April will still be enjoyable as the ?Soja train? stops at C.N.C in Cape Coast to attract quite the number and scope of heads any other show can on 2nd April. Nana Quame with the support of other hiplife celebrities will again hold down the dance floors with tremendous tracks on 9th April at the Green Land Hotel in Swedru.

Enthusiastic fans are waiting patiently for the doors of Eredec Hotel in Koforidua to be opened on 16th April for the much-anticipated show presented by NQ Records. His panorama of fans in the Volta Region will come out in droves on April 23 as he flutters into the famed Weazor Hotel for a show during his eventful tour.

April 30 will be nothing short of sensation when he bounds onstage at Prempeh Assembly Hall in Kumasi with screams of straight hysteria greeting him. Tribes of many colours will represent at the Town Hall in Mampong on 1st May for another exciting show.

Backed by many dependable artistes, he will coo his way through with songs from his current album on 7th May at the Town Hall in Winneba. The Accra International Conference Centre on 4th June will also come alive as Nana Quame pumped to a frenzy displays his energy and dynamism on stage.

In the month of July, the ?Soja train? will move to the international scene. The audience that will gather in front of the colourfully decorated stage at Quame Tour in U.S.A on 2nd July will never be let down. The auditorium is definitely going to be filled to capacity with even those who could not get in the gates dancing and cheering in the surrounding streets.

Canadians will also have a feel of Nana Quame?s -one of Ghana?s topmost singers- songs on 27th July at the Music Awards with the support of other topmost artistes like Obrafour, Slim Busterr, Castro, Tinny, Okyeame Quame, Lucky Mensah, 4x4, Nana Acheampong and Kontihene.

Over thousand fans in London are also waiting in hush anticipation to see the iconic front man of Ghanaian music perform most of his warming tunes on 24th December at Stratford Rex and 1st January 2006 at Martin Kings.

After his sterling performances at most big shows, his name remains on everyone?s lips. On the real, Nana Quame is one of the most important figures in music history and he has emerged as one of hiplife?s most recognizable brands.
