Tsimba Itsoka

Each of US walks through life on his or her own path. And yet, in the course of a lifetime, so many of those paths cross and re-cross again. The steps that we take and the footprints that we leave behind leave a lasting mark - even if just a small one - on our families, our friends, our community and even the world as a whole. Oliver Mtukudzi, the Zimbabwean Afro-pop icon who joined the Heads Up label with 2005 release of Nhava, examines the lasting effect of those indelible traces of humanity in his new release, TSIMBA ITSOKA, a twelve-song CD set for worldwide release on August 28, 2007. The album is the latest installment in the critically acclaimed Heads Up Africa series.
