Thankfully, Makeba’s fellow South African and renowned vocalist Sibongile Khumalo has agreed to step in and has traveled to the U.S. specifically to perform at Celebrate Brooklyn!

Sadly, a fall sustained by Miriam Makeba late last week has forced the cancellation of her U.S. dates. Although it makes her deeply sorry to disappoint her loyal fans, Ms. Makeba’s doctors are not allowing her to travel!

A multi-talented vocalist, Sibongile Khumalo, performs traditional South African and European sounds, to jazzy melodies, she glides from world to world with specifically South African flavours.

8 p.m. tonight at Celebrate Brooklyn
