This is a wonderful video that captures the spirit, joy and rhythm of the music style of Isicathamiya (from a Zulu word to walk or step on ones toes lightly) and the group Khula Happy Singers from St. Lucia, South Africa.
This time in one take Sanyo Xacti HD1000 straight from camerafile 1280x720 60fs.
My friends (very polity but very poor) from a township called Khula (sheds without water and electricity) outside St.Lucia KwaZulu-Natal South Africa. This group performs for tourist on restaurant terraces in St.Lucia and here at the arrival deck from a hippo boat tour on St. Lucia River at sunset. They sing and swing really great just like the other famous Zulugroup Ladysmith Black Mombassa this music style is called Isicathamiya. Made famous by Paul Simon. They rehearse a lot and we hope to make them famous also. Help them please if you can. We also produced this time a CD for them and next time a DVD also for selling to the tourists. Absolutely one of the best spots to spend a few weeks in Zululand, close to the best diving spots SodwanaBay, Elephant coast, birds (Trompet bills), monkeys, wild Hippo's, Crocks and HluHluwe Imfolozi wild park).
