BRITISH singer-songwriter JP Cooper is coming back to Mzansi.
The singer known for his hits, The Only Reason and September Song performed in Cape Town, Durban and Joburg in August 2023 and left South Africans wanting more.
And he is giving them what they asked for. He will be making another shot left to the country.
JP, whose real name is John Paul Cooper, will perform at The Playhouse Theatre, Durban on 28 November, Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens in Cape Town on 30 November and finally, Marks Park in Emmarentia, Joburg on 1 December.
He said he's thrilled to be coming back to Mzansi.
"I’m so, so happy to announce that I’ll be embarking on a bit of a world tour later this year. It will be in support of my new album, and I feel privileged to say that I will be coming back to South Africa as part of that tour,” he said.

The singer said he felt a great amount of love the last time he was in the country, hence he's coming back.
“The love I felt last time I was there, and the support you guys have given my music has totally blown me away. Looking back at some of the footage from my first trip out there last year, I saw some of the most impassioned and real responses to my music that I have ever seen. I'm so happy that it has reached you guys and that you are connecting with it so strongly,” the singer said.
JP said the tour in Mzansi will be some of his biggest events yet.
“The shows in South Africa will be some of the biggest headline shows I've ever done which is, both incredibly exciting and equally terrifying but wouldn’t have it any other way. I’ll be playing songs from my forthcoming album as well as favourites from my last few releases. Looking forward to seeing you guys out there,” he said.
