Jagwa Music- Bongo Hotheads (CD)
2012 debut album by the exciting Afro-punk collective from Dar-es-Salaam (Tanzania), whose electrifying appearances at festivals such as Roskilde have created a sensation. Imagine a crew of eight youngsters (with a great, urban dress sense) playing nutty grooves at breakneck speed on traditional percussion, a keyboard player going mad on a battered vintage Casio, and three relentless front persons: two breathtaking, spectacular dancers and a charismatic lead vocalist/MC, belting out songs about survival in the urban maze, unfaithful lovers and voodoo.
