The popular female jazz band Heels over
Head will bring an extra special performance to the Bat Centre on May 1.
Heels over Head are the winners of the
Yamaha Young Talent Award in 2010 and were nominated for a South African Music
Award in 2011. The funky foursome released their debut album Could It Be at the end of 2010, which
racked up popular and critical acclaim. Renowned for their suave, sophisticated
and sparkling stage presence, the band has found its groove and created a
smooth, watertight brand of slinky soul-kissed contemporary jazz.
Thulile Zama and Nomkhosi Mazibuko on
vocals are joined by Lindelwe Ngonelo on keyboards and piano and Rebekah Pillay
on drums to create the easy breezy jazz-pop that has become their signature
sound. At the moment the band is working on their second album.
Heels over Head aims to build a platform
and ask attention for females in music, they have a female manager (Marlyn Knol
- iSupport Music Business) and for this performance vocalist/rapper Skye Wanda,
guitarist Chillie Stent and also a second female pianist and drummer will be
joining the band on stage.
The show takes place on May 1 (Workers Day)
at Afroportico at Durban’s BAT Centre, starting at 14h00 and entrance is R50. More
