Getting into the Groove
Mango Groove wowed the crowd on Sunday with the sounds of trumpets, flutes and the unmistakable vocals of Claire Johnston.
A typically beautiful KZN winter’s day had Ballito locals joining Mango Groove at Sugar Rush Park for a fun day of family entertainment at the Marriott Ballito Beats concert on Sunday.
With clear blue skies, glorious sunshine and families and friends getting into the groove of things, opening act David ‘Qadasi’ Jenkins and Maqhinga Radebe set the tone for an afro-centric afternoon with their unique maskandi sounds.

The local duo bring an international calibre of music to the stage with their proudly South African sound.
“Qadasi and Maqhinga were the perfect complement as an opening act, and really got the crowd excited,” said Stu Berry, Series Director.
Mango Groove wowed the crowd with the sounds of trumpets, flutes and the unmistakable vocals of Claire Johnston: all the things that make them one of South Africa’s favourite acts.
“We are once again very pleased with the great turn out at Sunday’s show, despite it being a busy weekend for KZN locals and holiday makers,” said Berry.
