Ladysmith Black Mambazo has brought their joyful vocal music from South Africa to the world for over half a century, their music rising from isicathamiya, the music of the mines. That tradition is respected and extended on the new Ladysmith Black Mambazo CD, Walking in the Footsteps of Our Fathers.
It has received the band 17th Grammy nomination. They visited KLCC's SELCO Performance Hall for songs and conversation, before performing at the WOW Hall in Eugene on Friday, January 27th.
