Description

Yay! This group has added an excellent 80-year old singer on their second album! Enjoy the long tracks and dance. This group plays very low pitched mbiras (very similar to Dambatsoko tuning) in the Rwizi area of Mhondoro Communal Area, Zimbabwe. Group members are Michael Muchenjekwa and Parwa Choto, mbira; Newton Mhirizhonga, vocals; and Francis Choto, hosho. [Total time: 78:08]
