In this special release we focus on our artist in Arusha, a northern city of Tanzania where tourism is the major mean of income. Due to covid 19 pandemic our artists from Arusha were affected more as music performances and workshops were their only way of income. This edition presents an experience we had with Swahili Sound System Band. All songs and performances are original materials written and composed by the band members.
