Info zu Journey of the Soul

One of Kenya’s leading guitarists Jack Muguna has announced the release of his first full album project! Aptly titled Journey of the Soul, this album bridges the gap between the jazz, the African sound, paying homage to the origins of the African Jazz guitar while simultaneously heralding new directions.

The 9 track album is composed of entirely original material composed by Jack, and is a mix of moods, modes and messages. The album features an all-star lineup of musicians from various countries; featuring Emmanuel Yakobo (Drums - Tanzania) Mike Onyie (Bass) Stevoh Mwanzia (Keys) Mokua Rabai (Saxophone) and Mackinlay Mutsembi (Trumpet & Trombone). Also featured is James Jozee (vocals) and award-winning Ghanaian pianist Victor Dey Jr – (Piano & Keyboards).

It all seems quite unfathomable that we are still living through a pandemic. In Kenya, in particular, there have been tougher restrictions in regards to lockdown and curfews, huge gatherings have been banned and most of all the live music scene, has to bear the brunt once again. Even in these unprecedented times, it is quite amazing to get some healing music. I am quite delighted to have a ravishingly good listen to music this season.

"Journey to the Soul is enchanting with Muguna's forward-thinking approach to improvisation – a key aspect that will ensure that he continues to be one of the leaders of jazz in Kenya." (Lucy Ilado, musicinafrica.net)
