Zawose Queens (2024) 04

16th July 2024 at Dalston Eastern Curve Gardens, London E8.

Country: Tanzania. Style: Gogo Fusion.

Lineup: Pendo Zawose (v/illimba/chilimba/kayamba/ngoma/marimba), Leah Zawose (v/illimba/chilimba/kayamba/ngoma), Oli Barton Wood (electronics), Tom Excell (g), Ben Brown (d).

Pendo and Leah Zawose are the daughter and grandaughter of Hukwe Zawose Hukwe recorded six albums between 1985 and 2002 and was a WOMAD regular before dying in 2003. The family are from the Gogo (aka Wagogo) people who originally came from the hilly Dodoma region of central Tanzania. The younger generation (including Pendo) performed asThe Zawose Family from 2002 until 2009. Now it is the turn of Pendo and Leah. For their gigs in Europe they were accompanied by Oli Barton-Wood and Tom Excell with whom they recorded an album "Maisha". I saw Hukwe at the Barbican in 1996 as part of quadruple bill titled "London WOMAD Weekend". Plus the Zawose Family in 2009 at The Darbuka, and Msafiri Zawose (one of Hukwe sons) in 2016 as part of the Nile Project at Islington Assembly Hall.
