Sue Nyamnjoh & Zwide Ndwandwe Duo

Sue Nyamnjoh is a Cameroonian-born creative living in Cape Town with a background in

languages and media studies. Her debut anthology, [un]ravelling was published in 2023. In her

poetry, Sue Nyamnjoh tackles universal themes of love and pain from a deeply personal lens.

She dives headfirst into the shared uniqueness of the human condition and with each poem,

invites the reader to consider their own experience of feeling in full. When she steps away from

the page, Sue primarily enjoys large doses of music, food, and people, in no particular order.

Zwide Ndwandwe is a Cape Town-based musician who is heavily invested in cultural work and

liberatory politics, contributing writings to publications such as Africa Is A Country, Amandla, and

ILRIG. He co-founded the seven-piece Black improvised music band Kujenga, achieving

milestones like a SAMA nomination, a Mzansi Jazz Award for Best Newcomers (2024), and

headlining festivals including the Cape Town International Jazz Festival, Joy of Jazz, and Jazz

In The Lights. Zwide was recognized as a Mail & Guardian Top 200 Young South African in

2024.

Together, Sue & Zwide bring you a new artistic offering of carefully crafted words rocked by the

sonic rhythm of the bass.
