Orchestra Fauvette

Congolese group founded in the east of the Congo in the 1960s by Ndala Kasheba. The band relocated to Tanzania (via Bujumbura, Burundi) in the late 1960s, arriving in Dar-Es-Salaam in 1969. The group was one of, if not the, first Congolese groups to settle in Tanzania. In 1970, Ndala's old friend Kikumbi Mwanza Pango joined the group. Two years later, in 1972, the group changed their name to Orchestre Safaris-Nkoy.
