Siti & The Band

Zanzibar

Unique blend of traditional Taarab and female empowerment

Siti & The Band carry you away to the magical island of Zanzibar in the Indian Ocean. They are the rising stars of Taarab, an East African musical style that combines elements of Arabic, Indian and African music.

Lead singer Siti Amina makes her voice heard in the island’s conservative and male-dominated society, delivering powerful messages of feminism and empowerment. She infuses traditional Taraab with a good dose of contemporary music from funk to jazz and reggae.

Siti Amina’s dazzling stage outfits, powerful appearance, unusual musical arrangements and exotic instruments make for an extraordinary concert experience!
