When IKS and Urban Voices asked the mountain to come to them...

Happy South African Heritage month! although this happened in 2013, if this had happened last night, how would you imagine it?

From an insider's perspective, one can testify that the African Rootz Rhythm Concert was so rewarding yet highly challenging! For one, Urban Voices and IKS managed to pull it off with virtually no funding. Thanks to the Drakensburg Promotions and Catz Pyjamas, this was an incredibly memorable event.

Tau ea Matsekha were supposed to perform as a trio. They decided, at the last minute, to bring 12 performers. Their act was graceful, elegant and truly inspiring.

  

Have you ever heard of someone beat-boxing on a flute? Yeah, Wouter Kellerman displayed the extension of the flute that night :-)

When Bheki Khoza stepped on that stage and played the first bar, the audience travelled back into the 70's during the days of Miriam Makeba and Dolly Rathebe...

Tlale Makhene was asked to perform for longer. Thank goodness he was prepared. He then went into a trance that sucked Sibongile Khumalo right in. Tlale and Mme Khumalo's impromptu performance was out of this world!

Diviners are a blessing to some and a curse to others who chose to see it that way. Blondie Makhene and daughter Latoya Makhene, both traditional healers and singers, made it rain this night.

When Phuzekhemisi got on stage, everybody got up! An audience member testified that she was healed that night.
