Bongeziwe Mabandla

When Bongeziwe Mabandla surfaced with his debut album in 2012 he was hailed as the new face of Afro-Folk, effortlessly able to entwine Xhosa lyrics with traditional music and folk stylings to create something uniquely captivating. In the years that have passed since Umlilo’s release, Mabandla has amplified his already considerable gifts and is now capable of joining Africa’s most highly regarded musical exports in creating a global audience for the music he makes.
