The Kholwa Brothers are not only putting isicathamiya on the map, but they’re doing it in style. Isicathamiya is one of the biggest musical genres in South Africa. It embodies the acapella style of group singing. It was started in 1990 by Derrick Mlambo. It’s now an 11-member all-male group. The group is mainly made up of young South Africans. And coincidently most of them were taught by the group’s leader, who is a school teacher by day. 22-year-old Brian Ndwandwe from Ntuzuma joined the group when he was just 10-years-old. He says it’s kept him busy and off the streets.
“It was not easy I can say because when I started, I was doing it as a hobby, and I just wanted to hang out with the guys. But as time went on, I saw that I can make a living with what I’m doing, It was very hard because I have been all over the place. I can say I didn’t just choose music from the first time. But when time went on, I saw that maybe this thing is in my blood because there came a point when I saw that I enjoyed it.
Isicathamiya became popular outside South Africa and the African continent after Paul Simon’s album Graceland featured tracks such as “Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes”. He was then backed by the world-renowned Ladysmith Black Mambazo.
