Winners of the Music Crossroads InterRegional Festival 2010, Club Shanga originate from the heart of Mashonaland East province (Marondera) of Zimbabwe, Club Shanga.

Formed in 2007, their name is derived from a traditional music style from their region called shangara, the group calls their contemporary take on it Afro Shangara! This is a mixture of afrocentric music accompanied with melodious female voices which give them a exceptional and distinctly Zimbabwean sound. Through their music they express their devotion to their own ethnic traditions whilst promoting African cultural values.

The group first participated in the Music Crossroads program in 2009 where the group managed to go all the way to the Music Crossroads IRF in Zambia but just missed first place. In 2010 Club Shanga has also won the Chibuku Road to Fame competition in Zimbabwe.
