The well-known and popular all-female jazz/pop band Heels
Over Head will give a performance at the Luthuli Museum on April 17. During the
day they will facilitate a schools programme for young learners and in the
evening the museum opens its doors to anyone from the community who would like
to watch these ladies in action.
The love of jazz music united these girls together towards the
end of 2008 to form this unique musical force. Since then they are always
occupied with composing, rehearsing and recording new music while giving many performances
around KwaZulu-Natal and the country.
Their music is referred to as smooth jazz or easy-breezy pop
jazz, they developed a notable and clever signature sound that consists of
current African-influenced music and uniquely re-arranged standards. The band
is known for making the audience get on their feet and dance to their rhythmic
bass lines and their cheerful melodies.
With their sparkling stage presence, the ladies always look
classy and stylish and you cannot miss the charm and charisma of their lead
vocalists, Thulile Zama and Nomkhosi Mazibuko. They are joined by skilled
drummer Rebekah Doty and accomplished pianist Mandy Cobbing. Last but not least,
smoking hot guitarist Chillie Wardell-Stent joins the band and the flaming
fusion of musicians is complete.
Heels over Head performs on April 17at 18h00 at The Luthuli
Museum, 3233 Nokukhanya Luthuli Street in Groutville. Entrance fee R20.
This performance is
supported by Concerts SA and produced by iSupport Music Business and Luthuli
Museum.
