2012/1976
new
Ethiopian singer who spent a couple of years in the Imperial Body Guard Band (which gave the world both Mahmoud Ahmed & Tlahoun Gessesse). Being Oromo rather than Amharic, Birra is known for being multilingual & you can also hear an Arabic swerve to his sense of melody. Great dirty recordings with have a loping rhythm, but also go for broke instead of lilting. Tracklisting: Siin Baarbaada, Ishururuu, Silaa Murtii Beeke, Hawaash, Kophaa Koo, Abbaa Lafaa, Ammalele.
