Started by Kris Chali in 1978 in Choma, Amayenge is a popular Zambian music group. The musical style of the group is called kalindula, a distinctive Zambian popular style with traditional sub-Saharan african roots. Kalindula was originally played on banjos, ngoms drums, chisekele shakers and metal bells. Western guitars and percussion have slowly replaced the homemade banjos and drum sets used previously, but we can still hear in their music the raw groove and the energy of zambian music.
