Join us for a magical night as Nomfundo Xaluva takes us on a journey with the launch of her third and long-awaited album "Ndilapha"

Nomfundo Xaluva is back with her 3rd studio album independently recorded and produced between 2023-2024. Titled Ndilapha which means “I am here” in isiXhosa, this project’s intention is to express the various manifestations of presence through song.

Having last released an album in 2015, Xaluva’s recorded music has and continues to stand in the gap for her during periods of physical absence from the stage. After years of writing, learning and listening, she returns to the stage to launch Ndilapha, a body of work consisting of songs she has penned over the last decade.

This album is a culmination of experiences which include loss, re-birth, motherhood, black womanhood, love, and legacy. With 9 out of the 10 songs written by Xaluva, it is her fervent hope that through her songwriting she can contribute meaningfully to the (re)creation of spaces for black women to reflect and celebrate themselves authentically without the pressures of hyper visibility often pursued through reductionist meanings of presence. “In a milestone year for me, this album is the perfect reminder to myself that I am here, in my way and I am enough”.
