Event information
The Johannesburg-born soul singer returns to Cape Town with a bold new direction in his musical journey.
Following a first European tour, Bongeziwe Mabandla is set to embark on a nationwide series of shows. With a sound that harkens back to traditional Xhosa folk, this show explores his journey to becoming a soul icon with a fresh set of songs.
Growing up in the rural Eastern Cape, Bongeziwe started singing in his local church. Many years and a couple South African Music Awards nominations later, the musician is keeping to his traditional roots while performing new material and old hits. From songs like 'Ndokulandela' that kickstarted his career, to new tracks like 'Zama' and 'Yalwa', the show explores Bongeziwe's entire musical journey.
Blending an intimate atmosphere with Bongeziwe's introspective writing, the performance promises to be a soulful introduction to a new era.
