JAMAICAN R&B reggae fusion musical duo Brick and Lace is scheduled to visit Zambia for a performance at Lusaka's Barclays Sports Complex on August 21.

According to sources connected to Mahogany Entertainment, a Canadian-based company and organiser of the duo's visit, Brick and Lace - comprising sisters Nyanda and Nailah Thorbourne - is expected to perform alongside special guest Jozi from South Africa, and Zambia's Celtel Star Search hip hop finalist Kapuka aka TR with his partner TEF from Canada.

"Brick and Lace are coming to Zambia and this is not a rumour, it is going down...this is just the beginning for the Zambian entertainment industry. The Zambian entertainment is rapidly growing and making its way around the globe. We hope that the show will unite Zambian entertainment and Zambia as a whole," the source said. The source added that Brick and Lace will also perform with local talents.

"Auditions for diverse talents (local) such as dancers, cultural artistes, singers, comedians and people who can bring different element to the event will be held at a date which will be disclosed by local radio stations," the source revealed.

Mahogany Entertainment are the main sponsors of the project, while www.rhythm100radio.co.za, a Zambian-owned online radio station based in South Africa, are among the media partners.

Brick and Lace originally consisted of three sisters; Nyanda, Nailah and Tasha Thorbourne. Tasha left the group, but she continues to work behind the scenes and co-write songs for her sisters.

The duo has had a number of successful international tours and is well-known to the Zambian market with hit songs from their debut album Love is Wicked.
