Ladysmith Black Mambazo Concert

For 60 years, South Africa’s five-time Grammy Award winners, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, has warmed the hearts of audiences worldwide with uplifting vocal harmonies, signature dance moves, and charming onstage banter. It was Paul Simon’s 1987 Graceland album that introduced Ladysmith Black Mambazo to the world. The late former South African President Nelson Mandela designated the group “South Africa’s cultural ambassadors to the world,” a title the members carry with the highest honor.

“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

Ladysmith Black Mambazo’s latest release is Soothe My Soul: Songs From Our South African Church, an album of gospel music.
