Featured in the acclaimed “Amandla! A Revolution in Four-Part Harmony”, Vusi
Mahlasela is South Africa's leading political songwriter. At a young age
Vusi was exposed to the music of local legends Miriam Makeba and Hugh
Masekela. Vusi participated in ANC rallies where he would recite poetry,
sing and perform with the guitar South African writer and Nobel-prize winner
Nadine Gordimer gave him. In late 2000, Vusi was invited to perform on Dave
Matthews Band's multi-platinum album Everyday. In 2003, Matthews signed
Mahlasela to his own New York-based label, ATO Records.
