Introducing ZOH ZOH

(Zoh Zoh translates to one step at a time, because life is a journey)

Zoh Zoh a 8 piece band lead by Yaw Boateng produces a unique, upbeat, and invigorating an Afro-Reggae sound.

The band is a cultural rainbow from varying ethnic backgrounds that bring together West African percussion instruments, with horns, guitars and keyboard. The combination introduces Afro Beat Jazz, Old School Reggae and African Funk High life, played together for the first time.
