She has had the honour and privilege to work with and write for some of mzansi’s most notable names such as Tsepo Tshola, Winnie Khumalo, Thandiswa Mazwai, and Black Coffee.

Taking to her Instagram, the singer and songwriter revealed that she would be hosting auditions later this month at the Jaspa Studios located in Rouxville, Johannesburg, in search of her next backup singers. On the poster, Zonke encourages those who are interested to prepare her songs  ‘Murandziwa’ ‘Bizan’umama’ and ‘This is it’ for the auditions as those were the songs that she will be using to choose the next members of her team.
