Guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Oliver "Tuku" Mtukudzi, one of the most powerful creative forces to emerge from Zimbabwe in the last three decades. Nhava is the latest installment in the Heads Up International's critically acclaimed Heads Up Africa series.

Mtukudzi says the new album - named after the Zimbabwean word for "carrying bag" - is a satchel filled with nuggets of advice, encouragement and wisdom for travelers on the journey of life as they make their way through an often perilous world. "All of these ideas are universal. They are the same for every human being, regardless of their culture or their environment." Nhava celebrates the power of unity, a lament for the imperiled environment, a warning that the world will leave behind those who give in to procrastination...
Mtukudzi compares human life to a garden of flowers that need to be watered and tended every day.

Loaded with rich rhythms and engaging harmonies, there's something for everyone in Oliver Mtukudzi's bag. Reach into Nhava and discover a simple wisdom that could change the world. Drop this one in the car -- perfect for that journey on an open road in a convertible!
