One of South Africa's most exciting emerging talents, Thandeka Dladla embodies the glamour and talent of the most legendary jazz singers, with a skilled and sensual voice, wrapped in her her own sophisticated and stylish package. 

As they say, dynamite comes in small packages and it's certainly the case with Thandeka. The diminutive songstress and songwriter has a larger-than-life presence and the pipes to match. Her entrancing voice, shaped and inspired by South African jazz, progressive rock, Afro-pop, R&B, Classic Soul and Acid jazz, sweeps audiences along on a colourful journey filled with heart-gripping melodies, that meld a connection between the past and the present.  

Thandeka is a versatile vocalist who regularly fronts The Unity Band and The Pebbleshakers, and is now exploring her solo sound, with an EP due for release soon
