When:
OBS! New program on Africa Day 6/9! Artist Msafiri Zawose is one of the very foremost in Tanzania’s traditional gogo music, which together with the multi-tone singing is often associated with the zeze string instrument and tumpianot ilimba.
Gogo music has a central and obvious place in everyday life in the hometown of Bagamoyo, where Msafiri Zawose grew up in a large family of musicians with father Hukwe Zawose at the forefront, a giant in Tanzanian music who, among other things, collaborated with Peter Gabriel.
Msafiri Zawose began touring professionally around the country as a twelve year old, and since then and to this day does passionate work of taking gogo music further into the future. At the core of Msafiri Zawose’s music remains the modality and feeling of traditional music, but he also lets his music meet modern styles, including in the organic-electronic hybrid gogo album Uhamiaji, released on UK Soundway.
Msafiri will be kicking off the evening at 7pm with a solo performance before the concert with Manluckerz.
Don’t miss out on this!
