Atongo Zimba is an award-winning artist, master kologo player, singer and a griot from the north of Ghana. He was very young when his grandfather taught him to play and build the kologo, a two stringed lute which has its variations throughout the savannahs and deserts of West Africa. His early career saw him opening weekend shows for Fela Kuti at the Afrika Shrine with his solo performances, then going on playing with the likes of Osibisa and the Pan African Orchestra. After a ten year hiatus from recording in Europe and multiple World Tours, Atongo’s new album 'A to Z' is his most exciting to-date, firmly establishing his reputation as one of Africa’s top traditional music artists.
