Thobekile: LONDON ZULU

solo album is co-written and produced by Hami and Tim of TGU.
Hear some extracts at: www.myspace.com/doreenthobekile “Superior African music produced in London…bubbles with Zulu funk and global beats. Highly recommended.”
STRAIGHT NO CHASER “Fantastic, full of soulful Township
ballads and dance floor friendly tracks where Doreens South African melodies meet kwaito inspired cutting edge production.”
BBC AFRICA ON YOUR STREET “Based in Britain
where her daring excursions into Zulu music and dance have made her a popular figure (she practically stole the 2004 WOMAD
festival)….” THE WORD
