Nongoma

Nongoma was born in Hamburg, Germany in 1989 to musician parents. She grew up in Zimbabwe and Switzerland and did High School in South Africa. A gifted musician in her own right started composing at a tender age of four back in Gweru, Zimbabwe. She has a high calibre in voice command, harmony being her forte. With her two younger sister: Thembi and Nandi, she started a girl-band in the suburb of Wollishofen in Zurich, Switzerland together with their childhood friends. One could see that she was set for bigger things. Her ability to lead this young band at the age of 12, writing all the music, arranging the harmonies and literally training the band members from scratch, Nongoma set high standards for this young band from the beginning. At eleven she sang lead on a Warner Music hip-hop production. At 14, she sang lead with Gospel Singers Wollishofen, one of the most renowned Gospel choirs in Switzerland. This year she joined them again and she appeared on the Swiss Gospel Contest '08 singing a song she penned. She has just completed High School from the National School of the Arts (NSA), in Johannesburg, South Africa. She is ready to take the music industry head on!! A singer from birth... a rare talent.
