The 2019 season of Coke Studio Africa announces it’s upcoming All Women finale Episode in a powerful statement and a trail-blazing move, unveiling some of Kenya’s top female instrumentalists who will be part of the show’s live band in the finale episode.
They include Kasiva Mutua (Percussions), Wendy Kemunto (Vocals), Ivy Alexander (Guitar), Naomi Ziro (Bass Guitar) and Mutindi Tindi Muasa (Keyboard).
This will be the first time Coke Studio Africa is featuring an all-female band and instrumentalists in a bold move to highlight Africa’s great talent and the opportunities for women in the arts industry.
TEDGlobal 2017 fellow, Kasiva Mutua makes her second return to the show this year.
She shares her experience: “It’s been a real vibe working with different artists from across Africa and enjoying their different personalities, which is what I feed off when am creating. As a lover of traditional instruments, I appreciate the fact that on this season, Coke Studio Africa has included a lot of that.”
