简介

The 'Yote Yote' (Everything) album is a collection of nine songs written mainly in Kiswahili and Dholuo which are the 2 languages that the Contemporary Benga artist, Winyo and the Afro-acoustic singer Nina Ogot are known to sing in. The songs have the intricate mix of traditional and western rhythms which have been uniquely incorporated into the music to create a new authentic Kenyan sound, appealing to both the new and older generation of music lovers. The title of the album ‘Yote Yote’ is an accurate reflection of what the two songbirds have experienced in their lives as individuals and as husband and wife. With love songs like Lala Salama (Good night) and Mimi na Wewe (You and I) and Yote Yote, this album will leave you with the nostalgia of falling in love and moving to that lovely new dwelling place where love is limitless. Winyo, known for his debut album titled BENGA BLUES, has received both local and international praise for his vocal prowess and creation of a new age Benga sound which has opened up platforms for him in Brazil, Cote d’ivoire, China, France, Italy, Germany and many more. Nina Ogot, creator of the Kenyan Afro-acoustic niche, has acted as a musical cultural ambassador on several occasions and raised the Kenyan flag up high when she represented her country in the first ONEBEAT program, an initiative by the United States Department of State which annually unites over 30 artists originating from different parts of the world and facilitates their musical tour around the U.S.A for one month. Nina Ogot and Winyo launched their Duo Album Yote Yote on the 18th Dec 2014 on the Thursday Nite Live platform at Choices Restaurant.
