Wulomei makes major comeback!
It is made up of 10 sensational versions of their hit songs
After several years of going unheard, Wulomei is back again with a collection of their hit songs dubbed, Wulomei Returns.
It is made up of 10 sensational versions of their hit songs that made them superstars of Ghanaian music decades ago.
Songs like ‘Aklowa’, ‘Meridian and ‘Takoradi’ are given exciting modern arrangements from Afro Beats, Soul, Reggae and Highlife.
Significantly the album is still rooted in powerful Ga rhythms of old Accra that should get you dancing!
Wulomei Returns is produced by Dr Kwesi Owusu of Creative Storm with Vico Mensah of Osibisa and Nii Tei Ashitey, Wulomei’s founder who sadly passed on last year.
Each track on the album brings special musical influences to the original. The catchy sing along melodies are still on parade, this time mixed with the exciting sounds of today.
A crack team of musicians do justice to the songs; from the striking guitar work by Kari Bannerman to Paul Bilson’s haunting Miles – Davies like trumpet opening to ‘Takoradi’ which Tinny raps on.
Tracks available at Apple Music, Tidal, Amazon Music and other global platforms. Stream here.
