Timeline
He pursued a music engineering course in the United Kingdom in the 80s. That afforded him a chance to work with the internationally acclaimed Scottish outfit, Orange Juice. On his return to Zimbabwe he worked at the Baptist music studio as a sound engineer. Mhlanga recorded the solo albums Mukai and Music Ye Africa with Jethro Shasha, both at Shed Studios in Harare. In 2001, he assembled The Louis Mhlanga Band with musicians who were influenced by jazz. The band was invited by SAFM, a South African radio station, to perform at the National Arts Festival. The group released the album Shamwari (Sheer Sound).
In April 2000, Mhlanga produced Vusi Mahlasela's fourth album and appeared on it. In 1999, a live duo recording with Mahlasela resulted in the album Vusi and Louis Live at the Bassline. He was involved with Thandi Klaasen's album Two of a Kind, which was initiated by Dutch singer Stef Bos. Bos featured Louis on the album De Onderstroom, for which he co-wrote the music of the title song. Mhlanga is on the album Place of Hope, which contains collaborations with George Duke, James Ingram, Al Jarreau, and Dianne Reeves. He is also on Fire in the Engine Room by Andy Narell. Following their South African tour, they released the album Live in S.A.
He admired the traditionally derived pop of local musicians such as Thomas Mapfumo. His first album was released by BMG in Africa in the early 1990s ten years after it was recorded. Shamwari, his international debut album, introduced him as a guitarist who combined African pop and jazz.
