The 14-track album has a single, Narini, which has been on the Top 10 Zimbabwean Music videos programme on DSTV’s Zambezi Magic channel.

Ekhaya is now available on iTunes and online stores and will be in the country’s stores at the end of the month.

After successfully launching their first album, Thina, the group courted the interest of Australian record label 10th District.

“We will soon be going to North America and we will offer our second album Ekhaya. Tracks on the second album include Narini, Ngonyama, Hapana, Inganekwane, Uthixo, Inkomo Zomlandu, Linso Lyamoyo, Musha Wangu, Woza Ngane, Uthando, Nyawo Lwani, Misodzi, Inkonkoni and Mlobokazi,” said the group in a press statement.

In February the group went on a video shoot for their song Inganekwane (folktales) at Amagugu in Matobo.

The five-member group which has resuscitated the flickering imbube music have gone beyond the borders to countries such as Austria, Germany, Belgium and Czech Republic.

They have played in concerts, halls, theatres and festivals such as “Voice Mania” in Vienna and “Trans-Vocal” in Frankfurt-Oder.

The group comprises Duduzile Sibanda, Siphiwe Dube, Claire Ratidzo Dangarembwa, Joyline Sibanda and Heather Dube.
