Illusive Presents, Frontier Touring and ZM are proud to present, for the first time ever in New Zealand, a brand new RNB party: the colossal FRIDAY JAMS LIVE is heading our way for one massive show in October! *AIRHORN*
On 22nd October, ZM’s favourite RNB show Friday Jams levels up for one epic party. Featuring an absolute stacked line-up of Craig David Presents TS5, NE-YO, Sean Paul, Kelis, Mario as well as the newly announced Christina Milian and hosted by ultimate hype man Fatman Scoop, this will be your one chance to see musical royalty gracing the stage, performing all their crowd favourites and timeless anthems.
‘Friday Jams has seen incredible growth to date, and it’s only early days. Starting as a three hour feature on ZM a little over a year ago, Friday Jams has quickly grown in to a monster; Taking over New Zealand workplace radios every Friday, expanding to an iHeart Radio Channel and New Zealand #1 album.
We’re incredibly excited to bring this show to the stage and put on the biggest RNB throwback party New Zealand has ever seen.’ – Ross Flahive, ZM Content Director
INTRODUCING FRIDAY JAMS LIVE 2017:
Selling over 8 million albums worldwide, Friday Jams Live 2017 welcomes British superstar Craig David.

The exhilarating live DJ and vocal set up has been performed across the globe at some of the world’s biggest parties including Glastonbury, Wireless Festival, Ibiza Rocks and London’s iconic O2. David will bring all the ‘flava’ to the stage with his iconic tunes including the likes of ‘7 Days’, ‘Walking Away’, ‘What’s Your Flava’and ‘Re-rewind’.
2017 is the Year of the Gentleman, the ‘One In A Million’ Ne-Yo will be heading Down Under for Friday Jams Live 2017. One of the most sophisticated and sought-after songwriters in the industry, Ne-Yo has collaborated with acts like ScHoolboy Q, T.I, Juicy J, Calvin Harris and Wiz Khalifa.
Ne-Yo will treat audiences to his sexy and smooth tunes like ‘So Sick’, ‘Miss Independent’, ‘Closer’ and ‘Let Me Love You’ plus recent party anthem, ‘Time Of Our Lives’ feat. Pitbull. Ne-Yo comes equipped with a full live band for his exclusive set at Friday Jams Live and no doubt, with a few surprises up his sleeve!
