Mango Groove Big World Party Tour

“20 Years of Hits and Memories, 20 Years of Mango Magic”

Mango Groove, Oppikoppi Productions and EMI Music South Africa are delighted to announce the 2010 Mango Groove Big World Party Tour.  The April and May trek is a celebration of the inimitable legacy of this special South African act, as well as a showcasing of Mango Groove’s critically-acclaimed brand new album, ‘Bang The Drum’.

’We’re really excited about this: It’s been a long time coming, and a lot of preparation and thought has gone into it, but we are now raring to get out and hit the road!’’ says the band’s lead vocalist Claire Johnston.

“We loved the idea of a ‘’Big World Party’’ (taken from one of the tracks on the new album), because this year more than any, South Africa will be at the heart of the world,” says Mduduzi Magwaza, Mango Groove’s legendary penny whistler. “In addition to the South African shows, the next year will also see Mango Groove getting back in touch with their fans in the UK, Australia and the US, so it will certainly be a Big World Party all round!’’

In founder member John Leyden’s words ‘’the notion of a ‘’Big World Party’’ is a nice, big, open-skies one: we will be expanding the tour as the year progresses, and the itinerary will also take in shows outside of our borders.’’

In keeping with what they have always delivered to fans, the 2010 Mango Groove Big World Party Tour will see the 11-piece band performing all the hits and new songs in a show that features high production values.
