About Mokoomba
Mokoomba is a Zimbabwean musical group, originally from Chinotimba township, Victoria Falls. The group sings in a number of languages including English, Luvale, Tonga, Nyanja, Ndebele and Shona. Mokoomba takes its name from a Tonga word that connotes deep respect for the Zambezi river and the vibrant life along its banks. Formed between 2002 and 2007, the group began its professional career in 2008. Their performance at the Music Crossroads InterRegional Festival (IRF) in Lilongwe, Malawi, won them a European tour and they recorded their first album, "Kweseka". Their second album, Rising Tide, was produced by the Ivorian singer Manou Gallo. In February 2017, Mokoomba released its self-produced third album Luyando on Germany’s OutHere label, a stripped-down, mostly acoustic album that took their sound in a new direction. http://www.mokoomba.com/
