Zawose Queens (The) - Maisha *Pre-Order

Release Date Friday 7th June 2024
All pre-orders will be dispatched/made ready for collection on that day.

The Zawose Queens are Leah and Pendo Zawose of the Tanzanian Wagogo
people, whose joyous otherworldly vocals and polyphonic rhythms on drums,
thumb pianos and chizeze fiddle mirror the sounds of nature. The
grand-daughter and daughter of the late, great Hukwe Zawose, like all the
women in the Zawose family, they were once forbidden from the spotlight.
Aided by producers Oli Barton-Wood and Tom Excell, this is a stunning debut of
eleven original songs that deftly blend the acoustic, electronic, traditional and
modern.
