Nomfusi

The soul of Mama Afrika meets the fire of Motown and Soul… in a pint-sized packet of dynamite. In just six years, Nomfusi has become one of the most sought-after performers globally, with over 20 international tours. A voice as powerful as her determination, she has risen from South African squatter camps to renowned stages worldwide, including WOMAD, Afrikadey (with Angelique Kidjo), and opening for Lionel Richie. Critics compare her to a young Miriam Makeba with a twist of Tina Turner. A child of the soil and a woman of the world, Nomfusi’s cathartic performances inspire action, as she sings in her anthem Nontsokolo: “Remember your sister, your brother, your mother and your neighbour. Don’t leave them behind. Go back, and make a difference.”
