Manie Jackson Joins COUNTRY SPECTACULAR at Carnival City this June

The incredibly popular Manie Jackson has joined the line-up of the huge COUNTRY SPECTACULAR at Carnival City's Big Top Arena on 18 Junie. This year, COUNTRY SPECTACULAR boasts more than a dozen top artists on one stage, promising yet another delightful country music experience. Artists performing at COUNTRY SPECTACULAR include Cheree, Manie Jackson, Lance James, Barbara Ray, Tommy Dell, Jody Wayne, Jason Bradley, Maritza, Alwyn Oberhoster, The Rodeo Girls, Chantel Williams, Nadine Burness, Sandy Lee and Carlo Leone.

Manie Jackson is a country singer through and through. His song, "Die Hemel Weet" was an overnight sensation, leading to many gold and platinum certifications. His performance of Dennis East's "The Trouble with Love" secured his position in the country music genre. His "Julia" earned the top position in the charts of numerous radio stations, including RSG's "Big 5".

Lance James, Barbara Ray and Tommy Dell were part of the supporting act of Kenny Rogers's South African tour last year. These artists will pay a special tribute to Rogers in COUNTRY SPECTACULAR. Lance James comments:

Mr Rogers is such a wonderful person and artist. It was such a privilege to go on tour with him and also to experience his wonderful talents first hand, that it will be our privilege to pay tribute to this international star.

Frans Swart, producer of COUNTRY SPECTACULAR, says is it exciting to present the show once again:

If you look at the number 1 songs on charts worldwide, they are country songs. I still remember the massive Springbok Radio Country Festival at the Rand Show and that's exactly what we want to offer again.
