  3. Ladysmith Black Mambazo


Sharing a heartfelt message of love, peace, and harmony, Ladysmith Black Mambazo performs an uplifting concert showcasing traditional South African vocal styles. Already successful in their own right in South Africa, the group rose to worldwide prominence in 1986 when they collaborated with Paul Simon on his hit album Graceland. Ladysmith Black Mambazos richly harmonious vocals take inspiration from isicathamiya, a traditional music that developed in the mines of South Africa. The group has won five GRAMMY Awards, more than any other world music group in GRAMMY history as well as being nominated 19 times. They have recorded with Stevie Wonder, Dolly Parton, Sarah McLachlan, Josh Groban, Emmylou Harris, Andy Grammer, and many others. Their music has been featured on many film soundtracks, including Disneys The Lion King, Part II; Eddie Murphys Coming to America; and Clint Eastwoods Invictus. Ladysmith Black Mambazo had the deep admiration and respect of South African President Nelson Mandela, who designated the ensemble South Africas cultural ambassadors to the world.
Ages: This performance is family friendly.
