Cuban dynamo La Dame Blanche was among the brilliant highlights last night as the first gigs for Midem By Nights went into full swing on the Midem Beach. It showed international live music at its best. Other Midem Artist Accelerator finalists storming the stage were South Africa’s T$hego, BigStar and AKA.

T$hego showed why he is a young South African man on a mission to take on the world.

AKA‘s performance showed he is more than Known As, he’s destined to be truly known on a larger stage.
