about

Abusuzit Akugru is an elder singer, performer and matriarch from Binaba in the North of Ghana. This special LP showcases her mindblowing talents, recorded in her home village with her band. 12 tracks of the most amazingly soulful gonje music like you have never heard before. Check it out. We promise that you'll be dancing and weeping tears of joy in no time.

Gonje is a West African fiddle, accompanied by the siyat shakers and Abusizit's overwhelmingly great vocals. Recorded on a cell phone in Abusizit's village, outside, as it was meant to be.

LP is limited to a mere 100 copies. Of course, digital is also available.
