IN PHOTOS: Canadian singer Jamie Fine blows Lowveld away with tour

Lowvelders were recently awarded the unique opportunity of seeing international singer Jamie Fine perform at the Lowveld National Botanical Gardens.

This much-anticipated leg of international singer Jamie Fine’s If Anything’s Left tour reached the Lowveld National Botanical Garden last Wednesday May 1, much to the delight of hundreds of her fans who flocked to her show.

Held on Workers’ Day, members of the audience were able to use the public holiday to relax with their families and friends in the beauty of the garden while listening to a host of talented South African artists throughout the day, with the night ending in an explosive performance by Fine.

Among the South African artists to perform on Fine’s tour were Nicole Carlse, Hunter Leite, Soné, Martin Bester and Band and Scallywag, who all received cheers and applause from the audience.

The Canadian singer, who became popular in South Africa with her song, “If Anything’s Left” was, of course, the main attraction, bringing the audience right up close to the stage to watch her and her band perform.

Fine engaged with her fans throughout her show, and in addition to singing several of her songs, including a few unreleased ones, she spoke about the importance of self-love and being true to oneself, her love of South Africa, in particular the Lowveld, and said her song “If Anything’s Left” blew up in South Africa first before gaining popularity in other countries, including her own country, Canada.

The evening ended with the opportunity for fans getting to take a few photos with Fine, and everyone who attended thoroughly enjoyed the entire show.
