From rootsy, copperbelt guitarists to electric guitar dance styles like kalindula, to roadside skiffle, and now, a powerful new wave of R&B, Zam-raga, and rap, Zambia offers a rich and generally overlooked world of popular music. This program will delve deeply into the history with hot combos of the past like The Big Gold Six and Emmanuel Mulemena, as well as sample the fruits of Zambia's current musical renaissance with acts like Black Muntu, JK and Danny. We'll get the inside line from Chisha Folotiya our man at the country's top pop label, Mondo Music. Also insights from producer and Zambian music compiler, Michael Baird. |
