One of Africa’s greatest vocal groups will tour Canada in the fall of 2025.  This will mark three years since Black Umfolosi’s last Canadian tour, so audiences will be anxious to catch up with them again.  Because of his human rights work in Zimbabwe, bandleader Thomeki Dube and his daughter Sandi were forced to claim refugee status in Canada last year and are currently living in Calgary.  Two other Black Umfolosi members are also living in Canada now and the band is rounded out with another Zimbabwean expat who lives here as well.  Because they are now based in Canada we no longer need to factor in international flights or visas, which is fantastic, and Thomeki has decided to update the group’s name to Black Umfolosi International.
