Johnny Clegg is a South African anthropologist and historian, self-taught musician, and Zulu by choice. His music has spoken for those caught in the grip of apartheid, both blacks and whites; songs of freedom, hope, and love.

His songs are uplifting and thoughtful, his lyrics both poetic and powerful.

These pages trace his musical career with bands Juluka and Savuka, his reunion with partner Sipho Mchunu, and offer some insight into his views on music and politics.
