Zamina brings heat to Hanoi’s New Year’s countdown!
As the clock struck twelve, Hanoi Rock City was on fire with electric atmosphere and Zamina was in the middle of it all as the headliner of the 2023 – We Live! (Countdown Show). This was an evening that will be remembered for a long time, and all thanks to the music lovers who made it a point to come out and bring in the new year dancing. This is because from the very first song, Zamina showed the crowd that they are a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.
From the first song, Zamina showed a lot of energy to the audience with their Afrobeat, Highlife, Afrofunk and Makossa rhythms. Being a band that loves to produce deep grooves and great dance rhythms, this is what they delivered to Hanoi Rock City. It was clear that Africa was in the house and everyone had to get up and dance to the music being played.



This musical powerhouse has Tomi as Zamina’s charismatic band leader, the soul that keeps Zamina rolling. Tomi is not just a frontman, he especially ignites the vibrant and energetic African traditional rhythms combined with other sounds to create something new and fresh.
As the countdown reached its peak, the atmosphere was electric. The crowd, united by the universal language of music, chanted in anticipation. And when the clock struck midnight, Zamina led the celebration with a powerful, rhythm-infused explosion of sound that had the entire venue moving in unison. It was more than just a performance—it was a moment of pure, uninhibited joy.
For many in attendance, this event was not just a New Year’s Eve party, but a cultural experience—an introduction to the rich and vibrant sounds of Africa. Afrobeat is a movement, and the spirit is being spread far beyond it’s origins and into the hearts of new audiences.
As we move into 2024, Zamina continues to pave the way for Afrocentric music in Vietnam. Their performance at the We Live! Countdown Show was just a glimpse of what’s to come. If this night proved anything, it’s that Afrobeat is alive and thriving in Hanoi, and Zamina is leading the charge.
For those who missed it—don’t worry. The journey is just beginning. Stay tuned for more shows, more music, and more unforgettable nights filled with rhythm, movement, and the spirit of Africa!
