Zanzibar Music Festival

A video from the Music festival in Zanzibar. The lady on the right is like 100 years old and she can wail! She was so awesome. At some point some belly dancer came out and started dancing. I don’t really know what was going on but this gives you a good feel for the festival.




The festival had a bunch of very different acts; from very African tribal, to gospel Indian music, to Bongo Flava, which is like hip-hip. Here are some tribal dancers shakin’ what their mama gave ‘em!




This act had an asian guitar player and a lead singer that looked like Lafayette from True Blood. The highlight was every now and then these 4 Asian ladies would jump out and start dancing. We would go crazy every time they showed up. The expressions on their faces were great.




At some point during one of the performances, the backup singers decided to have a kick off. I don’t know why, but I know I liked it…




Tanzania’s very own Backstreet Boys. Enough said…




The end of the festival everyone just celebrating an awesome time.
