Sauti Sol, Kenya’s most popular Afro-pop band, performed at the Blankets and Wine on Sunday 6th October 2013 at the Carnivore grounds. The monthly event’s theme was a somber tribute to the victims of the heinous Westgate terrorist attack, which occurred less than a month earlier, on September 21st.
Sauti Sol and all other artists in attendance performed pro bono and the proceeds were channeled to helping the victims of the attack, through the auspices of the Kenya Red Cross. Other Kenyan artists also performed during the event, including Chris Adwar & The Villagers Band, Atemi Oyungu, Aaron Rimbui, Sarabi and Yellow Light Machine.
