ABOUT

Soundscapes Session with Buhlebendalo

It's been seven months since Buhlebendalo's soul-stirring second album, Hele, was released. She describes it as a continuation of her curated prayers to the gifters of song, believing deeply that she is a messenger of these sacred melodies.

This March, Buhlebendalo returns to the Selective live stage—her home away from home. Her Cape Town band, featuring the incredible Khaya Njikelana on drums, Inganam Batala on keys, Grant Allison on bass, and the talented Bvs Sia Mzizi and Koketso Langa, will join her for a powerful live performance.

Come immerse yourself in the sounds of Hele, as Buhlebendalo takes us on a journey through both her album and the prayers behind it.

Odwa Bongo will be an opening act for Buhle so dont forget.

In 2012, the Drakensberg Boys Choir alumnus was announced the Standard Bank Schools Big Band vocalist at the Standard Bank National Arts Festival.
