They have toured Southern Africa, Swaziland and Zimbabwe as well as parts of Europe such as Germany and Switzerland.

The group has won two national and two international awards. The group’s inspirational heartfelt music has been shared through two EP’s (‘Stimela’ and ‘Take Me Back’) and one award-winning album (‘Kuzolunga’).
