Chinobay Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Chinobay is a Ugandan musician, educator, and creative arts producer whose work has been described as “some of the most exquisite music coming out of Africa today”. Since his youth, he has captivated audiences with world-roots rhythms and melodies that emanate from the diversity of the many traditional instruments he customized to develop his unique sound. The diverse textures of Chinobay’s music make it soothing, pulsing, meditative, and invigorating —much of it a mix of original and traditional with global influences—but the sounds are uniquely his. His pan African WAMU SPIRIT band has created a sound of their own, tapping into various global influences with a strong foundation in African roots. Chinobay is an accomplished educator and has for many years visited schools, colleges and learning institutions to lead workshops, residencies, and masterclasses. His educational and outreach programs bring learning hands-on experiences to global students of all ages, introducing Africa’s cultural arts, social studies and stories rarely covered by mainstream media, to reach a unique understanding of how we connect as humans across cultural and national lines. Chinobay had curated several multi-day residencies that lead to culminating performances with various local ensembles. Chinobay uses his music and voice to empower children and youth living in underserved communities, helping them to build resilience, restore dignity, nurture talent, and find purpose. He is the curator and producer of Dance of Hope, an initiative that uses the transforming power of music, dance, and storytelling to educate and empower young people living in under privileged communities to become independent global citizens.
