SWAHILI VIBES BAND
Swahili Vibes is a Tanzanian band formed in Zanzibar at the the Dhow Countries Music Academy, in 2009. The band consists of 8 Musicians, some being teachers and the rest students of the academy.
The band plays a fusion of experimental styles with influences from the traditional Tanzanian/African rhythms as well as Zanzibar's Afro-Arab and western styles. This is a result of their involvements in many musical projects taking place in the Academy and other parts of the World. The musicians have a long experience of performing both locally and internationally and very often they work and play together with big names from around the Globe.
