PIANO PEOPLE IN THE PARK SET TO TAKEOVER LONDON

Having made a name for hosting the hottest acts and future stars exploding out of South Africa, Piano People is set to disrupt Southwark Park this week with a star studded lineup!

“​​Amapiano hasn’t even reached its full potential globally, the genre has so many variations that are already crossing over and exploding and we are proud to be a part of pushing the movement forward with the drive of organisations like Piano People. This show is going to be so special as the Scorpion King’s first ever Summer takeover in London this August”.

Scorpion Kings

The event is headlined by Amapiano Godfathers Scorpion Kings joined by special guest and South African dance music pioneer Oskido, superstar vocalist Young Stunna, superkid Vigro Deep, Soulful Queen Mawhoo, London’s very own Via Seri and the crowd’s favourite host Uncool MC – all bringing the groove to London’s inaugural outdoor festival this bank holiday.

This year also brings a special twist with Afro Tech and Afro House’s hottest acts joining the star studded line up, including 3-Step King Thakzin, Zakes Banwtini and Atmos Blaq, all celebrating the depth of South Africa’s rich history of incredible Black electronic music.

In the style of Piano People’s pioneering ways, the festival sees the return of their much loved European Groove stage, which will host the next generation of acts to come straight out of Europe. These include London’s Kwamzy and Shannen SP, UK Latin DJ Sofi Mlow, Amsterdam’s Unruly Phoenix, Manchester’s Joe Shamzz and more.

“We’re thrilled to announce our first-ever outdoor festival in London this summer. Alongside sharing the incredible genre of Amapiano, we’re also excited to embrace other Southern African dance music styles such as 3-step Gqom and Afro Tech/Afro House. This celebration highlights the versatility and richness of the Southern African dance music scene. We can’t wait to share this amazing music and culture with the capital city.”
