about

'Incantations - The Road to Riebeeck East' is an instrumental album by 'Igqirha' meaning 'healer', a world music/traditional maskandi collaborative project spearheaded by South African composer and musician, Wren Hinds.

'Incantations' takes the listener on a journey through the sounds of the 'African guitar' and follow's in the tradition of great mentors and ancestors in the maskandi lineage such as King of the Zulu Guitar, Madala Kunene.

It is an album of invocation, initiation and exploration through the healing and naturally 'psychedelic' approach to music by our fore-bearers, it is medicine music and it truly embodies the culture of Southern Africa.

The album was created as part of the Southern African Music Rights Organization's Music Creation Support Fund initiative, which pledged to inject resources and creativity into the Southern African music industry after the economic collapse brought on by the global Covid-19 pandemic.
