The Centre for Jazz and Popular Music is proud to present Banda Banda & The Crocodiles on Wednesday 29 April 2015 at 18:00.

 

Bassist Banda Banda has always been out spoken about being an African and wanting to be the African voice to be heard all over the world.  That is something that shows in his music and his love for world music, pop and jazz. Banda is known for his unique way of approaching the bass which made him to stand out.  Spending time with Bheki Mseleku and Sandile Shange contributed on his growth, he got to work and tour with top artists like Sibongile Khumalo, Busi Mhlongo, Madala Kunene, Thandiswa Mazwai to mention a few. He is always made a name for himself as a knowledgeable bass player with great people’s skills.

 

The Crocodiles project was born from the idea of putting great versatile musicians from different parts of the world and musical backgrounds on one stage. With Banda’s diverse influences of different cultures and backgrounds he wanted to offer an exciting project in which the melt pot of those influences came together. Banda Banda and The Crocodiles is all about cultural exchange and sharing. The Durban band consists of Banda Banda on bass guitar, Dr. Sazi Dlamini on guitar, Sam Ibeh on drums, Mthunzi Mvubu on saxophone, Sibusiso Mkhize on trumpet and Lungelo Ngcobo on keys.

 

Between all these musicians there is a lot of experience and diversity, which makes this project very exciting. Most of the music is written and arranged by Banda Banda himself. The project fuses  African Music, Funk, Jazz and Latin.  Influences to the sound are bands like  Sixun, Taiwa Molelekwa , Joe Zawinul and the Syndicate, Miles Davis , Manu Dibago and Salif Keita.

 

This tour is supported by Concerts SA and produced by iSupport Music Business. As part of the tour Banda Banda and The Crocodiles will also visit Mdepha High School in Cato Ridge and give a workshop concert to the learners.
