Artist Biography
Ladysmith Black Mambazo is a South African male choral group known for their captivating a cappella harmonies and traditional Zulu music.

The group's name reflects their origins: Ladysmith is the hometown of founder Joseph Shabalala, "Black" represents the black oxen, considered the strongest on the farm, and "Mambazo" translates to "axe," symbolizing the group's ability to "chop down" their competitors with their powerful harmonies. Ladysmith Black Mambazo has won multiple Grammy Awards and has released numerous albums showcasing their unique blend of traditional Zulu music with modern influences.
