Ladysmith Black Mambazo

Founded by Joseph Shabalala in the early 1960’s, three-time Grammy Award-winning vocal group Ladysmith Black Mambazo is still going strong. Catapulted to worldwide fame following the success of Paul Simon’s Graceland, the group is now enjoying the busiest time of their career.

“It isn’t merely the grace and power of their dancing or the beauty of their singing that rivets the attention, but the sheer joy and love that emanates from their being.” - Paul Simon
