Swahili coast & taarab heritage
The journey begins in Zanzibar, carrying the sounds, stories and living heritage of the Swahili coast onto the road.
The truck
A truck that opens into a stage, wherever the road stops.
The overland truck carries the artists, the instruments and the lights. At every stop it unfolds into a live platform for taarab, traditional instruments and community performance — bringing the music to people instead of waiting for them to come to it.
