Monoswezis 2013 debut album, now available as a 180g limited edition LP. The Village is a collection of rearranged Zimbabwean traditional songs blended with a cool Nordic edge. Includes a FREE download card allowing you to download the full album.

With members hailing from Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Norway and Sweden the boundary-crossing bands sound is entirely unique. Articulated mbira rings out atop colourful woodwind and the gentle rhythm section.

A fusion with an airy and expressive feel that displays a remarkable balance between two different culturesthis is a fine recording and an interesting new variation on the thriving young jazz generation in Scandinavia. Songlines 4*
