Witch was the first band in Zambia to release a commercial album - 1973's Introduction. Blending the rock and roll sounds of UK rock bands like The Rolling Stones, Cream, and The Beatles together with more traditional African rhythms, Witch pioneered a new genre dubbed Zamrock, and during their brief yet prolific existence, Witch (an acronym for We Intend To Cause Havoc) released 7 albums and were the most revered band in the country. Zango is the band's 8th studio album and the first release on Desert Daze Sound - a new Partisan imprint A&Red by the founder of the Desert Daze festival, Phil Pirrone. The album was recorded at the same studio where the original band's sensational 1975 album Lazy Bones had been made some 46 years prior: DB Studios. On Zango, Emmanuel "Jagari" Chanda is joined by Patrick Mwondela on keys, Nico Mauskovi on drums and percussion, Stefan Lilov on guitar, JJ Whitefield on guitar, and Jacco Gardner on bass, who is also credited with producing the album alongside Witch. The album features collaborations with Keith Kabwe (Amanaz), Theresa Ng'ambi, Hanna Tembo, and Sampa The Great. "'Zango' means 'meeting place'," Jagari explains. "Every village [in Zambia] will have this central place, where villagers meet to prepare for work, where youngsters go to learn, where the young ones learn from the elder folks, and where the visitors come and converge. It's an institution, a place where people are welcomed, and where people come for research. It speaks to our band and it's various backgrounds and countries. We are at our own meeting point with our music.
Recorded live to tape at DB Studios which was equipped with the same machinery that recorded Lazy Bones in 1975 and brought back to life for the occasion for the first time in decades by Zamrock Engineer Peter Musungilo and his trusted partner Michael Linyama. This album is dedicated to Giovanni Arlotta for his determination, commitment and resourcefulness without which this album would have not been possible.
"Zango" is the electrifying new album from Witch, available in CD format and released by Pias/Partisan Records. This record marks a triumphant return for Zambia?s legendary psych-rock band, blending their iconic Zamrock sound with fresh influences and modern production. With pulsating rhythms, fuzz-laden guitars, and infectious melodies, "Zango" captures both the spirit of 1970s African rock and contemporary global grooves. Witch (We Intend To Cause Havoc) are pioneers of Zamrock?a genre fusing traditional Zambian music with psychedelic rock?and have influenced generations since their formation in the early 1970s. Their earlier albums like "Lazy Bones!!" became cult classics worldwide after being rediscovered by crate-diggers and music lovers alike. The label behind this release, Pias/Partisan Records, is renowned for supporting innovative artists across genres; they consistently deliver high-quality productions that celebrate musical diversity.
