The Zimbabwe Cha Cha Cha Kings was a sungura music group formed in 1985 in Hurungwe. The group is known for the hit song Vimbiso.
The group consisted of David Ziome (drums and leader), Mitchell Jambo (lead vocals), Micron Jambo (rhythm guitar), Peter Mwachande (lead guitar) and Hoza July (bass).
The group moved to Mutare in 1989. A few months later, the Jambo brothers left to form the Marunga Brothers after a disagreement with Ziome. Ziome continued to lead the band for a brief period before it disbanded.
