Traditional African Music


Last Wednesday we went to the bar behind our house where we watched a local family of musicians and dancers perform their original songs. Many of the routines have been passed down from generation to generation along with all of their handmade instruments. We quickly found out that they like to put the “mzungus” on the spot… (mzungu = white people). We were pulled up during several performances.. Couldn’t quite shake it like the natives. We are hoping to buy their CD before we leave.
