American singer Kem Owens will perform in South Africa in March this year.
The R&B crooner will play in Cape Town, Durban and Johannesburg from 2 March.
The tour is being organised by Afropulse Entertainment who brought Joe Thomas in December last year.
"We are excited to be bringing Kem to the country. South Africa has the second highest number of album sales worldwide for Kem and he felt it was only right to bring the tour to his fans," Afropulse Entertainment promoter Sabata Lechama said.
Kem wrote, produced, and self-released his debut album Kemistry in 2002. The album's first single, "Love Calls", became a hit at urban adult contemporary and smooth jazz radio, and USA Today pegged it early on as a "Motown classic." The album went gold-plus.
He followed his debut release with a second album, Album II, released May 17, 2005 and sold more than 500,000 copies in the US.
Cape Town – 02 March 2012 (venue to be announced),
Durban – 03 March 2012 – Durban ICC
Johannesburg – 04 March 2012 – Standard Bank arena.
