About the BandFB | INST | SPTFY | YUTB | .COM
Mokili Wa is a new and blossoming fusion and world music ensemble from Santa Cruz, California.
Fronted by virtuoso Elie Mabanza, a native of the Congo, the band is animated by a great diversity of influences, both musically and experientially. From the blissful grooves of Africa to the evocative harmony of fusion and jazz, this groundbreaking collective offers us an opportunity for deep connection and conversation in the spirit of hope and love. The sounds of Mokili Wa are truly unique and at the same time stirringly familiar as they remind us of our common humanity and ancestral roots.
Their debut album “Are You Listening?”, released in April 2021, features moving vocal performances from the magnificent Tammi Brown and an uplifting message to nurture the soul.
