Join us for the always lively Afrika Eye 2022 Opening Party with live music from Harare, bringing the sounds of Zimbabwe to Bristol and our Café & Bar from 22:00.
Think buzzing acoustics of the rich-toned marimba, mbira, stinging guitars, swooping bass lines and irresistible dance rhythms with uplifting vocals sung in the Shona language of Zimbabwe. ‘Jit’ is the name of the game, as we celebrate the past and the future of one of the coolest African dance styles.
Fronted by the charismatic marimba maestro Kuda Matimba, once a driving force in Zimbabwe’s legendary ‘Bhundu Boys’.
