After years in the music industry collaborating with other artists, guitarist Elijah Molosankwe has released a contemporary jazz 10-track album titled Mariberibe. Arts&Culture Correspondent, LESANG MASWABI samples a compilation of the songs that make up the album

Mariberibe comprises a collection of mesmerising works characterised by a blend of fluidity and creativity. As such, it provides a canvas upon which each one of the band’s members navigates smoothly to offer a progressive and joint project in the form of modern fusion-cum-contemporary jazz.

The album features songs such as Tsoga Morobadi, Chiwele, Mariberibe, Leja Maswe, Boitshoko, Rammata, Mama, Cheri, Mokgantsutswane, and Monna, and was recorded at Alfredo Mos’ Original Music Studio by Patrick ‘Mangasa’ Motlaopi.
