Vivid Africa - South African Jazz

VIVID AFRIKA is the coming together of two of South Africa's most adventurous yet sensitive composers and musicians: McCoy Mrubata (alto and tenor saxophones, saxello and flute) and Greg Hadjiyorki Georgiades (who plays nylon guitar, oud, bouzouki and fretless resonator guitar).

VIVID AFRIKA includes magical tabla player and percussionist Ashish Joshi Wynand van der Walt playing drums and percussion and renowned double bassist Mlungisi Gegana, who has worked with Zim Ngqawana, Hotep Idris Galeta and McCoy Mrubata, was a natural choice, with his depth of expression and groove.

Siya Makuzeni, who is a trombonist, is also the most powerful, sensitive and expressive voice, all rolled into a pocket-sized rocket with attitude.
