Viral sibling trio wows 'AGT' audience with cover of "Clearly" by Grace VanderWaal
This trio already has a huge following online. And it's easy to see why.
This trio is joy personified.
Musical sibling trio Biko's Manna, hailing from Johannesburg, South Africa, has already taken the internet by storm with outstanding covers of “Stand By Me,” “What Was I Made For,” “Don’t Worry Be Happy” and much, much more.
The group’s viral fame even got them a spot on “The Jennifer Hudson Show,” where they sang “I Say A Little Prayer,” and played their first stand alone concert and the DC Jazz festival. And now, the talented trio has made their way to the “America’s Got Talent” stage, where they performed "Clearly" by Grace VanderWaal.
Biko’s Manna might have made their claim to fame with casual performances in their living room, but man, they know how to fill a stage. Between the big sister Biko (aka BikoStar)’s crystal clear angelic vocals, middle brother Manna (aka MannaHero)’s guitar playing and harmonies, and youngest brother Mfundo (also aka TauLion)’s dance moves which are a whole vibe, it’s easy to see why folks are impressed. But it’s also their contagious joy and undeniable chemistry that keeps people coming back.
Though it’s hard to pick a favorite moment, Mfundo jamming with maracas and shouting “it’s gone, so gone!” during the chorus is definitely up there.

Biko previously shared that “music is in her blood,” and was inspired at an early age by singer and songwriter India Arie (yep, that checks, she’s definitely got an Arie vibe to her voice). Not long after she started learning guitar, Manna and Mfundo joined in, and thus "Biko's Manna” was formed.
Nailing it one the head, judge Simon Cowell told the group, “there’s something really authentic about what you do. You have the ability, which is rare, just to make everyone feel amazing when you perform.”
“I couldn’t stop smiling,” Howie Mandel echoed. “What you do is contagious and wonderful and just makes us happy.”
In response, Biko sweetly said, “The love that we have for each other, we are so grateful to spread it to the world cause all we really need is love.”
What a beautiful sentiment. The ability to spread love, joy and happiness is quite possibly the greatest talent of all.
