RIP: Oliver Mtukudzi - photographs from the African Soul Rebels tour 2009
Published on Thu Jan 24, 2019 by David J Colbran
Sad to hear that legendary jazz musician Oliver Mtukudzi has died. Oliver "Tuku" Mtukudzi was a Zimbabwean musician, businessman, philanthropist, human rights activist and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador for Southern Africa Region. Tuku was considered to have been Zimbabwe's most renowned and internationally recognised cultural icon of all time. These photos are from way back in 2009 when he was on tour with Baaba Maal at the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool, England UK.

"As a new business, it was very important to me to get the right publicity photographs for my marketing materials. When I met David, he listened carefully to what I was trying to achieve with my brand, and then produced fabulous photographs that were exactly what I needed. He was extremely professional throughout but also nice and friendly. Myself and my clients found it easy to relax with him, which was essential to create the right vibe for the shoot. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone."
