Sauti Sol’s Savara responds after fans attacked them over the Sol Fest Concert

Sauti Sol member Savara Mudigi has broken his silence after a section of their fans expressed displeasure in their weekend concert.

In a series of tweets and social media posts, fans accused Sauti Sol of showing up on stage late – something that has ignited an endless discussion online.

Following the discontentment from fans, Savara took to his Twitter handle to state that the group was being used as a punching bag in the whole scenario.

“Sauti Sol is the punching bag. Kama kawaida,” Savara tweeted.

However, his tweet was not received well by a section of their diehard fans. Many argued that Sauti Sol should have shown up on stage early instead of at 3 am – many of the fans bought tickets because of them.

Sol Fest 2022

On Saturday, December 17, 2022, all roads led to the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC) for the second edition of Sol Fest organized by Boy Band Sauti Sol.

Revelers from different parts of the country showed up at the venue ready to have a good time and interact with their favorite celebrities who were lined up to perform.

This was one of the major concerts that were going down over the weekend, with Sauti Sol performing to their Nairobi fans for the first time since their Alone Together break

Gates opened as early as 4:00 pm on Saturday, allowing party people to secure their preferred spots that could enable them to enjoy the performance without any struggles.

The first set of performances was opened by Burukyln Boyz, Brandy Maina, Charisma, Nadia Mukami, and Fena Gitu after DJ KK  and Lordwin had ushered the crowd into a party mood.

Others who performed include; Harmonize, Nviiri the Storyteller, Bensoul, Matata, Costa Titch and Octopizzo.

At 3:04, Kenyan Boy Band Sauti Sol showed up on stage ready to entertain their fans with a live performance of their hit songs.

Fancy fingers was the first one to arrive on stage followed closely by Savara, Chimano, and Bien- Aime Baraza.

Their first song was Sura Yako, which is still a fan's favorite as they were all singing along like a choir.

The award-winning group performed songs like Melanin, Short and Sweat, Feel, My Love, Colors of Africa, Suzanna, Shake Yo Bam Bam, Mbwembwe (Bien’s song), and Still the One among others.

During their stage time, the group also performed their solo singles with Savara inviting the group that put together the song ‘Kuna Kuna’ for a special performance.

The group was on stage for roughly 40 minutes – leaving their fans yearning for more.
