MDNStore.CreativeCenters.com: Zulu Heartbeat

Description

The voices of the Zulu people are calling to you. Songs of life and a new future uplift the spirits with the power and light of a new dawn. With lyrics sung in the language of the homelands by some of its leading vocalists and music by respected composer and musician Simon Zagorski-Thomas, together they create a heartbeat for a new Africa. The music they make carries more than a Zulu Heartbeat, if we listen it carries a universal message of hope for us all.

Zulu Heartbeat received 178 confirmed radio adds during eight weeks of promotion. It has also met with great critical acclaim, including a review in Billboard Magazine.
