WITCHMANIA
Emmanuel 'Jagari' Chanda, the front man of the Zambian band WITCH, is making a musical comeback with his new album 'Zango' set to release on June 2. The band, which originally rose to fame in the 1970s with their unique sound that blends various influences, recently reunited for live performances, including shows at SXSW 2022. Their nostalgic sound, known as Zamrock, is rooted in traditional Zambian music as well as global rock influences. This resurgence has rekindled interest in WITCH's legacy and music, leading to new recordings and tours.
