Nhapitapi Mbira (meaning “sweet mbira”) started playing together in 2008. Their music is centred around Mbira, an instrument that has been played in Zimbabwe for hundreds of years. Masaisai rapidly became a hit on the Toronto African Music scene, where we were sought after to play at festivals such as, Afro-fest and Bana Ya’Afrique.
