Samite's new CD Tunula Eno is a work of commitment, devotion and an overwhelming sense of humanity. Written and recorded during the last year of his beloved wife Joan's life, the album is a celebration of that which makes us human: love, loss, endurance, hope. It is a joyous album conveying optimism through stories and song, replete with swirling melodies, infectious rhythms and soulful vocals. Indeed these songs are a reflection of life itself: the innocent wonder of childhood ('Kite Kitere'), motherhood, ('Yangu Ni Yako'), marriage ('Mwatu'), village life ('Maama Yi Baaba'), politics ('Obubaka'), peace ('Agalilala') and everlasting love ('Tunula Eno').
'I am convinced', says Samite, 'that we are all moved by the same desires, needs and emotions, regardless of the language in which those feelings are expressed.'
