Wouter Kellerman received a 2015 Grammy® Award at the 57th Annual Grammy® Awards for his album Winds of Samsara, a collaboration with Indian composer and producer Ricky Kej. Kellerman is recognized as one of South Africa’s foremost musicians and has steadfastly built on the rigorous classical training of his youth, to create a signature sound that’s earned him both critical praise and multiple awards.
During a corporate event in late 2018 Kellerman worked with the Ndlovu Youth Choir (a rural choir based in the Limpopo province of South Africa) - and was overwhelmed and enchanted with their spirit, enthusiasm and sound. Wouter has a long history of supporting children, so he decided to collaborate with the choir and help showcase their talent – together they created a South African version of Ed Sheeran’s Shape Of You. The song became an internet sensation, going viral with tens of millions of views on social media, and pushing the Ndlovu Youth Choir firmly into the international limelight. America’s Got Talent saw the clip and were so impressed that they ended up scouting the choir to enter the 2019 competition. Ndlovu went ahead and delivered sensational performances going all the way through to the finals of the competition, showcasing South African music and spirit in the process. Their collaboration is part of Kellerman’s latest album In A Different Light, in which he re-imagines and re-shapes some of his favourite melodies by approaching them from a different angle.
