SA songstress set to turn up the heat this October

There’s a reason why Lady Zamar is the new Queen of SA Music – she recently walked away with the title of Female Artist of the Year and Newcomer of the Year at the SA Music Awards.

Added to this, she has teamed up with some of the biggest names in the industry, has numerous chart-topping singles to her name and her 2017 debut album, King Zamar, reached gold status.

She’ll be performing for the first time at the Theatre of Marcellus, Emperors Palace on Sunday.

The rich, sensuous voice behind the hits My Baby, Collide and Love Is Blind, the Queen of House and Dance will be accompanied by a full band in a two-hour showcase.

She’s also invited along fresh, up-and-coming talents Rhea Blek and Sivuyile as support acts.

Born in Tembisa and raised in Pretoria West, Lady Zamar (Yami Janet Banda), started singing at the tender age of six.

Growing up, she found herself involved with emerging and aspiring hip-hop artists of the time and considered herself a mini-rapper.

It was only a matter of time before her talents were picked up.

She shot to fame when she teamed up with Junior Taurus and their singles, Mamelodi and Cotton Candy, hit the charts.

This soulful songstress with a unique and powerful voice has become a household name and her music is heard on radio stations across the country.

She has collaborated with the likes of Prince Kaybee, Mshega, DJ Fortee, Tira and recently, with Vetkuk vs Mahoota and Dominic Neill.
