The Vuthela Marimba trio, consisting of 2 marimbas plus saxophone, was formed in 1998. Their repertoire includes South African, Zimbabwean marimba, Caribbean, Cape, and South African Jazz transcriptions.

Client Feedback
I would just like to send a special thanks to you & the Vuthela Marimba Trio for their beautiful music during the cocktail hour at our wedding at 12 Apostles (27 March 2011). Wow, wow, wow! Their music added beautifully to sunset over the ocean & helped make it a magical start to the celebrations. The guests thouroughly enjoyed their playing & were surely more than impressed by their skills. With so much talent & your skills as an agent, I trust they will go from strength to strength.

These guys were great! The saxophone mixed with the marimbas is a great combination and everyone was blown away by their performance. We will definitely be using this very talented trio again!
