Simba Arts back from Europe tour

MARIMBA and mbira outfit, Simba Arts is back in the country from an international tour of Norway, where they participated at the just- ended Bergen Afro Arts Festival (BAAF), alongside other groups from Africa and abroad.

The eight-member group that fuses mbira, marimba and dance, is a dynamic, community-oriented performing arts initiative empowering young people to find and create jobs out of art.

In separate interviews with NewsDay, some members, who participated at the festival, said they were pleased to have taken part in the tour.
