Five minutes with Nonku Phiri before Oppi 2015

by PDBY Staff | Aug 3, 2015 | Entertainment

You’ve performed at quite a few events, such as Drumbeat in March. How do you prepare for shows?
I try [to] keep things spontaneous and never ever play the same set twice. I guess it’s a matter of figuring out how to take the audience on a journey. I’m also really enjoying sharing my seemingly eclectic side with the crowd. I’m not really big on gimmicks and choose to keep things simple.

How would you advise festival-goers to prepare for a large-scale event like Oppikoppi?
Pack lots of water, wet wipes for the dust, and a set of old shoes. It gets rough out there.

What can fans expect from your Oppi set?
We’re planning on keeping things minimal [and] experimental. Don’t expect anything, just come watch us.
