(Charles Mdakane, Phuti Mofokeng
& Sibusiso Shabalala)
In association with Concerts SA and
Seaman’s Corner, iSupport Music Business presents Iza Ngoma live in
Hammarsdale. The concert will take place at Seaman’s Corner on March 31, 2018.
The band started late 2016 when three UKZN
music students- namely bassist Charles Mdakane, trumpet player Phuti Mofokeng
and pianist Sibusiso Shabalala- gravitated towards each other with a common
interest and resonance in musical preferences.
The three spent time in the practice rooms
for hours unravelling, jamming, immersing themselves in sound - mostly South
African jazz- and heading to their respective homes with great delight. They
eventually decided to take this delight to audiences and started performing on
campus. They realised the music resonated with the audience as much as it did
with the trio. The band is constantly exploring other colours of the music
spectrum, besides jazz, which happens to be what they study academically.
“The audience can expect bliss and a sense
of cognitive restoration, some storytelling, musical information and some
compelling ideologies, which will send them back home with a broader
perspective of modern civilization. Overall an intriguing sonic journey.” says
Shabalala.
