Biographie de l'artiste pour Rikki Ililonga

Rikki Ililonga Is A Psychedelic Rock Musician Who Gained Prominence As A Member Of The Influential "Zamrock" Band Musi-O-Tunya In The 1970's. While Touring With Musi-O-Tunya Ililonga Rose To Fame Within The Boundaries Of His Homeland And Soon Branched Out As A Solo Artist. Ililonga’s Solo Work Shows An Even More Powerful And At Times More Subdued Side. The Range Is Everything From Bob Dylan-Esque Folk Tunes To Fuzzy Psych Rock Tracks- No Less Impressive Than Anything Jimi Hendrix Cranked Out In His Heyday. The Songs Mostly In English Also Contain Passages In Silozi Chinyanja And Ichibemba. In A Country Still Emerging From The Pressure Of Colonialism This Was An Important Proclamation Of Zambian Identity In The Face Of The Once Commonplace Denigration Of All Things African.
