Malagasy and Comorian music is highly melodic and distinguishes itself from many traditions of mainland Africa by the predominance of chordophone relative to percussion instruments. Kenyan music enthusiasts can get a taste of this genre in the coming days as Franco-Comorian-Malagasy singer, author, and composer Ziad Daroueche is performing live in Kenya this May. 
Popular on indie streaming sites, Ziad Daroueche has performed in music festivals across the continent and now you too can immerse yourself in the sounds of the East African archipelago by watching Ziad perform live at these venues in Nairobi:
6th May - Two grapes 
8th May - Pallet Cafe Gigiri
13th May - Nairobi Street kitchen
Entry FREE!
