South African Music Award Nominee Bongeziwe Mabandla With Special Guest Sarsha Simone At Foundry 616
Two-time South African Music Award nominee Bongeziwe Mabandla will tour Australia for the first time this November, exclusively in Sydney at Foundry 616 onThursday November 20th 2014. Mabandla is also showcasing at the Southern Hemisphere’s premier roots industry conference the Australasian Worldwide Music Expo (AWME) in Melbourne and Mullumbimby Music Festival in Northern NSW.
Sarsha Simone’s name may be unfamiliar, but there's warmth in her voice that feels like home. It could be the similarity to soul singers from the past, the echoes of the late, great Etta James, or perhaps the recently departed Amy Winehouse. Blessed with a unique vocal tone that has the ability to cut through the cold and embed itself in the listener’s soul, Simone honed her skills under the moniker ‘Roxie Ray’ with Dojo Cuts on their 2008 self-titled debut album.
