Sauti Sol, the sons of the sun are back with a six track release extended play (EP) album titled Sauti Sol produced by South Africa's Spoek Mathambo. Fans of Penya Africa's soulful quartet were overjoyed to see the boys live on stage during the Big Brother Star Game on Sunday night but very few of them knew that the lads would be releasing this EP the following day.

Despite their playback act and a cultic local following, the group Camp Mulla is a great example of what it additionally takes for a musician to venture into the international market.

Kenya's favorite male quartet has finally revealed an official video for the first single off their new album Sauti Sol produced by South Africa's Spoek Mathambo. The song is a sample of a golden oldie from George Thorogood and The Destroyers called "Bad to The Bone" with a modern electronic "jazzy" tune.

The sensational all male Kenyan quartet Sauti Sol has achieved much since their market break in 2009 with the album Mwanzo. The band’s name is a connection of Kiswahili and Spanish with the word “Sauti” meaning “Music” and the word “Sol” being “Sun” in Spanish.

Kenya's leading record label, Penya Africa, is responsible for some of the heavy-hitting names in the industry today including the number one quartet in the country- Sauti Sol.

The latest entrant into the Nairobi events arena is Word-Up Live. Dass Restaurant in Westlands proudly plays host to a weekly round of poetry and live music delivered by young up and comers in the city.

The venue was magnificent, the line-up was incredible (by any standards) and the cause was a noble one but even as Maia Von Lekow got into her groove, or Christine The Jazzist did a Paul Simon jazz tribute or Chris Adwar REDEFINED “one man band” with a vocal processor, the seats in the house remained only a quarter full.
