Moses Mchunu

Moses Mchunu is a Maskandi Musician from KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. He is well known for his hit "Qhwayilahle", which was featured on the Indestructible Beat of Soweto album in 1985.[1]

Moses Mchunu’s style of music is said by musicologists such as Charles Hamm to fall into the neo-traditional FORM of Mbaqanga - infectious and complex four-bar sequences of acoustic guitar, vocals and harmonies, strong baselines, drums and usually an accordion and/or a fiddle.
