MI CASA are gearing up to take their signature sound to Europe from next week.

The group consists of lead singer and guitarist, J'Something – real name Joao da Fonseca – producer and pianist Sipho “Dr Duda” Mphahlaza, and trumpeter Moshe “Mo-T” Kgasoane.

The Jika hitmakers' upcoming European tour, from May 20 to 31, comes hot on the heels of their performanc­e at the Cape Town Internatio­nal Jazz Festival.

Mi Casa's European tour promises to be a celebratio­n of their musical journey and it is a chance to connect with old and new fans as they are set to perform in Madrid and Barcelona in Spain and Paris, France.

They will also tour the UK and perform in London and Manchester as well as Glasglow, Scotland, and Rotterdam in the Netherland­s.

Taking to Instagram, J'Something expressed his excitement.

“We have dreams and we have realities … the idea is to bring the two together as closely as possible. I remember so clearly when we wrote These Streets, thinking to myself … ‘imagine we could actually make a living from this'.

“Fast forward to today and here I am announcing a whole European tour with my band to visit countries I have never been to and a few others that are slowly but surely becoming other little homes around the world!”

He urged fans to share the news about their European tour.

“It would mean a lot to us if you could share the news that we're coming and all tickets + info are on our website,” he added on Instagram.

The group's European fans are thrilled about Mi Casa's tour, including Rachel Kolisi, who is living in France with her two-time Rugby World Cup-winning husband Siya, and their two children.
