Are music bands sustainable?

The Ubuntu Band breakup is just one of the too many cases of music groups who were tipped for success but failed to stick together. The name Mokorwana Cultural Group would ring a bell to those who followed Botswana music in the early 2000s. The group was the toast of Botswana’s most unique sound, traditional music which had become contemporary.

The group burst onto the scene with hit songs such as Madume and Tshweu anchored by two of the country’s most talented singers and performers Shirley and Gong Master.
