Here’s a song from our semi-acoustic side project, Kizungu 3.
A Zimbabwean mbira song we learnt from Noble Mashawa, with a local lyrical twist.

A cut snake gathers no moss
Ah, the months have slipped past. What’s been going down at Cut Snake?
At the end of January the senior members of Okapi Guitars recorded a handful of songs in semi-acoustic mode: acoustic guitar, congas, tastefully muted electric guitar. The Babu Three, perhaps? Los Trios Muziki?
A little more tweaking should see these tracks finished soon.
Karifi came in at the end of February for a drum recording session. Wonderful traditional drums. Must have been a dozen of them here.
The Heil PR40 sounded great on these.
