Description
The basic instrumentation is mbira dazvazimu (3-octave Zimbabwean kalimba), marimba, bass kalimba, saxophone, congas and djembe. Five of the tracks feature a full marimba ensemble a la Dumi Maraire or Balafon. Pennywhistle, tar, steel drum and dundun are also used. There are no electronics or sampling, for an authentic, timeless sound.
There are a few traditional Zimbabwean songs, but the material is mostly originals with direct, thought-provoking lyrics. With five vocalists in the band, and four lead singers, the vocals are full and varied. There's even an a capella track!
