South African superstar Johnny Clegg has been touring Australia for the first time in more than 3 years but promises to tour more frequently.
At his show in Melbourne this week, Clegg announced that he would be back in 2010.
Johnny Clegg is a rare talent. He has taken the Zulu sounds of his homeland and merged the rhythms with the contemporary pop sounds of the western world.
Clegg was such an innovator of the sound that it was soon noticed by artists such as Paul Simon who likewise used his template. Simon developed the massive 'Graceland' album out of the format.
Johnny plays his final Australian show tonight (May 28) in Brisbane before heading to New Zealand this weekend.
