Singer/songwriter, Wiyaala, has been praised around the world for her dynamic voice and fascinating stage act and she is set to offer a top-level concert, on Saturday, January 27 at the +233 Jazz Bar & Grill in Accra.
She will be on stage with the Yaga Yagas, four classically-trained Jazz fusion musicians she met in Slovenia in 2019. They have bonded well since then and have featured at several high-profile shows across Europe.
Always displaying immense originality, Wiyaala has wowed audiences everywhere she’s been. It has been her policy to steer her own path, with her cherished roots in the Upper West Region of Ghana being a big source of inspiration.
Her partnership with the Slovenian musicians has been beneficial to both parties, culminating in the recording of an album in April 2023 called ‘Segerege.’ It comprises 11 songs inspired by Wiyaala’s background at Funsi in the Upper West Region.
The album, expected to come out in the first half of 2024, embraces a wide variety of musical approaches. Featured on it are Wiyaala, Miha Petric, Jošt Lampret, Nejc Skofic and Žiga Kožar.
At the last show she headlined at +233, Wiyaala sang and danced for over two hours and in the process, got everyone around to sing and dance along with her.
Her repertoire this time around, certainly won’t be same as what she presented the last time she was at +233 but patrons can still look forward to some fascinating stuff at the 9.00pm concert.
