Heels over Head is an all-female jazz band from the shores of Durban, South-Africa.  The love of jazz music weaved these girls together towards to end of 2008 to form this unique musical force.

Since then the girls are always occupied with composing, rehearsing and recording new music and with lots of performances around KwaZulu Natal and the country.

Their music is referred to as smooth jazz or easy-breezy pop jazz, they developed a notable and clever signature sound that consists of current African-influenced music and uniquely re-arranged standards.

The Heels over Head band is known for making the audience get on their feet and dance to their rhythmic bass lines and their cheerful melodies.

With their sparkling stage presence the ladies always look classy and stylish and you cannot miss the charm and charisma of their lead vocalists Thulile Zama and Nomkhosi Mazibuko.

They are joined by skilled drummer Rebekah Pillay and accomplished pianist Mandy Cobbing. Last but not least smoking hot guitarist Chillie Stent joins the band and the flaming fusion of musicians is complete.

No doubt that fans take joy in listening to some Heels over Head; the African jazz ambiance, skilled musicians and vocalists and well-founded rhythm works enchanting.

The band was founded towards the end of 2008 has grown from strength to strength. Needless to say the sound of the band has grown tremendously in terms of dynamics, arrangements, compositions and performance while still staying true to all their original fans.
Their music is a melting pot with strong elements of jazz, maskandi, reggae, mbhaqanga, classical, RnB and afro styles. Songs like “All the things you are”, “Could it be” and many others performed by these ladies get the crowd off their seats.

Other favourites that’ll keep you humming are “Love Song”, “Inyanza leyo” and “Past,Present,Future”
Their performance skills on stage has won them a number of fans and followers. This energy and passion is what keeps their audience tapping their feet…and not a show goes by that the “vuma”ring doesn’t take over.
The band has performed in venues like The Jazz Centre, Bat centre, ICC, Zulu Jazz Lounge, Durban Exhibition Centre, Suncoast Casino and Entertainment World, The Protea Edward Hotel, The Jazzy Rainbow, Catalina Theater, Inanda FM Roadshow, Alliance Francaise, Bassline and Zack’s.
The Heels over Head band has made their mark in the KZN music scene with their fresh sound and are well on their way to becoming a “house-hold brand”…
