Following the release of her trance-inducing single ‘Ashikbaya’ back in December last year, Siti Murharam has unveiled her new LP which arrives tomorrow with On the Corner.
‘Siti of Unguja’ tells the story of pioneering women, of the ‘golden voice’ of Siti Muharam, heiress to the singular legacy of her great grandmother, the mother of taarab, Siti Binti Saad.
The six-track record explores the legacy of Siti Binti Saad, joining the dots between past, present and future of a rich tradition.
