Katanga Junior at Settlers Tavern

Hailing from the vibrant streets of Arusha, Tanzania, and now a musical force in Mparntwe/Alice Springs, Katanga Junior is a charismatic artist who seamlessly blends elements of reggae, ragga and hip-hop to create his own unique sound.

His sonorous voice, silky flow and multi-lingual lyricism complete this mesmerising fusion and he and his band bring joy and energy to every stage they conquer.

This March they are headed on tour in support of the release of ‘Pamoja’ – a collaborative masterpiece showcasing some of the best musical talent in Central Australia – and are excited to play the iconic Settler’s Tavern stage.

Having recently won Best Live Voice at the NT National Live Music Awards as well as a coveted spot on this year’s WOMADelaide line-up, Katanga Junior is on fire and ready to deliver his best performances yet, so you know you absolutely do not want to miss this one. Come for the muziki (music), stay for the cheza (play), furaha (joy) and upendo (love) because with Katanga Junior and band, the celebration never stops!
