For over sixty years, South Africa’s five-time GRAMMY award-winners Ladysmith Black Mambazo have warmed the hearts of audiences worldwide with uplifting vocal harmonies, signature dance moves and charming stage presence. It was Paul Simon’s 1987 Graceland album that first introduced Ladysmith Black Mambazo to the world; and 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 them with the highest honor.

In 2018 the group received not one but two GRAMMY Award nominations for two separate albums, a first in the history of the World Music award category. These two nominations brought their career total to 19 GRAMMY Award nominations. One of these albums, Shaka Zulu Revisited, won Best World Music Album.

Ladysmith Black Mambazo continues to tour the globe and has performed for millions of people, singing a message of peace, love, and harmony.
