Truly great singing, balancing soulful ballads and traditional dance songs with exquisite and perfectly timed harmony work
(Guardian)
It’s not just their sound but their look and their athleticism. They bounded on, promising an evening of “peace, love and harmony” from South Africa to the world and surely no one failed to pick up the joyous vibes as they sang and joshed with one another, and the audience.

Their special guest is Cameroon-born guitarist and singer Muntu Valdo - an electrifying presence who combines loops with the blues.
Muntu will open on all UK dates only
