A gospel-singing sensation, Abby Mamphogoro, finished recording a live DVD a fortnight ago and he believes that music lovers will love this live project.
The DVD, which will be released soon, is titled Tombo Langa, which can be translated as "My Rock".
"Tombo Langa was recorded live at Winman Studios and was engineered by the legendary Emmanuel Mamphogoro," he said. The DVD comprises six songs, all sung in Tshivenda. "It is a home-coming encounter, due to the dominance of the hymns," he said. "Some songs were inspired by Emmanuel Mamphogoro at home."
This artist's debut offer was titled Jesus Exaltation, an album with 10 songs and a beautifully designed booklet containing the lyrics.
He started singing at home as a nine-year-old boy. He is a drummer who has worked with major singers and musicians, such as Worship House on their Worship House Project 3.
Before going solo, he worked with the musical group Echo, garnering a lot of experience. "I continue to see music as a form of expression that begins deep within the heart," he said. "This is the only form of communication that one cannot ignore."
He is also inspired by ordinary people that he comes across during his performances at weddings, shows, and the church. "To keep my soul strong, I pray a lot and I am a member of the Vineyard Missions Centre under the leadership of Pastor NA Muhovha at Raliphaswa village," he said.
