Zonke Dikana, a multi-award-winning South African musician, has sadly withdrawn from the DRESS UP NIGHT Experience due to a sudden sickness of bronchitis that struck the singer this week.
Zonke was scheduled to perform at the Brothers Events Corporation’s DRESS UP NIGHT Experience at the Middleburg Banquet Hall in Mpumalanga on Saturday, 27 August, but she became ill with an unavoidable case of bronchitis, which is a vocally detrimental condition for vocal artists.
The singer took to her social media to detail how she hates disappointing her fans. “Above everything, I hate disappointing people, especially my supporters, fans, and promoters who have shown me nothing but love throughout my music career. If it was all in my power, I would absolutely make sure that I deliver on my promise and give them an experience they’ve come to expect on me.”
As much as she would have liked to give her fans a memorable performance,
she understands the importance of taking care of her voice. “I take my career very seriously. I respect my profession and the industry in which I operate; especially the people who always spend their hard-earned money to support the events in which I’m booked. As much as it pains me to disappoint them, but I must equally respect and preserve the instrument they’ve all come to love, to give them more magical musical years in the near future.”
Zonke went on to apologise to those who have already purchased tickets, but hopes that they will find comfort in the talents and music of her industry colleagues who have also been booked to perform at the DRESS UP.
