Sauti Sol’s Manager Marek Fuchs Opens up On The Millions Sauti Sol Make In A Month and His Favorite Member of The Band

Sauti Sol are Kenya’s most successful music group if their fame and achievements are anything to go by. Well, while it was pretty obvious they are making quite considerable sums from their music, you could not have guessed it was this much.

Their manager, the newly wed Marek Fuchs revealed the sums they make from shows alone giving a glimpse of just how moneyed the groups is. Speaking to Jackson Biko in his popular interview segment on Business Daily, Marek Fuchs revealed that the group charges between 1.5 million to 2.0 million per show with the standard being 1.5 million.

The band then gets to have an average of ten shows in a month meaning they rake in a minimum of fifteen million a month or figures topping 20 million. In a busy month like December, the groups has about 20 shows meaning they rake in about 40 million, in just that one month! Even deducting expenses and making allowances for other costs, the individual members of the group still take home more than a million each and that is only from shows. This is a far cry from the 150k they used to get a month prior to Marek Fuchs arrival, at least that’s what he says.

In the same interview, Marek went on to reveal his admiration for Chimano whom he labelled as ‘the defining rock star’ of the group. He describes him as an open minded non-judgmental soul who ‘does absolutely nothing….he just gets on stage and everybody recognizes him and he does his thing’.
