The Dark City Sisters were a group of session singers who came together to record an album and in the process popularized an innovative new style of singing. Rather than singing a common four-part harmony, the Sisters used five parts, which created a richer tone. Sometimes known as « vocal jive, » this technique was subsumed under the umbrella term « mbaqanga, » meaning, literally, dumpling, and figuratively, a homegrown style.
