Multi Grammy Award winners Ladysmith Black Mambazo are coming to Johannesburg to celebrate their 56th Anniversary, wowing audiences on music stages worldwide. 

Ladysmith Black Mambazo

The special two days only concert wil be held at the Joburg Theatre in September.


Ladysmith Black Mambazo first came together in the early 1960s under the gentle guidance of sweet-voiced Joseph Shabalala. His inspiration for the group came to him in a dream in which a choir of children sang and danced. Shabalala soon transferred that dream to real life when he formed Ladysmith Black Mambazo. 


They have also sold over 1 million albums in the UK alone of their Star and the Wiseman album with the much-loved Heinz commercial music Inkanyezi Nezazi.
