Moses Ngwenya

South African pianist and keyboardist. Born July 15, 1958 in Dube Village, Soweto, South Africa. First musical endeavor was Crocodile Rock, a band formed with his older brothers, playing guitar then drums. One of his brothers later bought him a small keyboard which would point the way toward his most well-known instrument. Between 1974-1975 as a keyboard player, Ngwenya was part of touring or studio bands for Izintombi Zesi Manje Manje and Usizwe Namatshitshi (both bands associated with talent scout Hamilton Nzimande). Around this time, Mgwenya crossed paths with the The Young Brothers (7) who were backing another Nzimande band, Udingane Namajongosi. Ngwenya and the Young Brothers hit it off, beginning to collaborate together musically in addition to their main backing gigs. This would be the genesis of Soul Brothers (2). Ngwenya has also released many solo albums apart from the group.
