Description
Sophomore release from Malawi's world-beating vocal collective. Following on from their critically-acclaimed debut, 'He Is No.1', and with Ian Brennan (Tinariwen / Ramblin' Jack Eliot) once again on production duties, this second outing from Malawi's very own barbecued mice sellers once again offers 15x self-penned original songs, of genius, joy and unashamed wholeness of heart, held together with timeless harmony and unison. The Malawi Mouse Boys were THE hit of Womad 2013, knocking the festival out with their harmonious musicality and creating an all-time festival record for CD's sold post-show. In a span of less than 48-hours - during a whirlwind UK trip that saw the guys flying in a plane for the first time, as well as singing with amplification before an audience for the first time - a shy and modest foursome were magically transformed into global superstars, channeling the spirit of Otis Redding, performing before thousands and driving the crowd wild, and somehow managing to electrify the audience into singing along phonetically in Chichewa!l 'He Is No.1' was the only world music choice in Amazon's Top 50 selections of the Best Of 2012.
