Matata

Matata is a Kenyan band that was founded by Jeik Kalunga Loksa in Nairobi's "Brilliant Club" in 1963. With their unique sound and energetic performances, they quickly gained popularity in the local music scene. In the early 70s, Matata recorded two albums in London, UK, showcasing their talent to a wider audience.

Their music is influenced by various genres such as funk, soul, and Afrobeat, creating a captivating fusion that keeps listeners hooked. Matata's distinct style sets them apart from other artists and has earned them a dedicated fan base both locally and internationally.
