Soroti boys song;

I call these musicians the “Soroti Boys” – they did not have a name for themselves and I knew they deserved one.  They made the most amazing music on the kalimba, and a traditional string instrument called an adungu – a nine-stringed arched harp that has the silhouette of a sail boat at sea, and of course their voices were beautiful instruments as well. source

This tumblog is here to show my love for Uganda; The Pearl of Africa, as it is known. I will post about the fun, happy side of Uganda; the people, the music, the movies, the food and so many other interesting things about it. This is not a political blog, it’s a place of joy and a place to showcase Ugandan culture and life styles (not usually shown in the typical media) to fellow Ugandans anywhere in the world and to foreigners curious about our country. Cheers!

P.S: if you have suggestions on how to improve this tumblog, write in my “ask box”, please. thanks.

Small Notice: This is a secondary tumblog, so far tumblr hasn’t enabled the “follow” back feature for secondary tumblogs so i can’t follow you back. Sorry.

Thank you & Stay Blessed.
