Amharic singer & traditional krar player Haymanot Tesfa was born & raised in Ethiopia and now lives in England, and is emerging as a rising star on the world music scene.
Although her music is inspired by deep reflection on the dramatic ancient landscapes and meditative social & religious music of her Ethiopian roots, the sound of Haymanot’s voice is the true song of a free spirit, fearless and intensely experimental.
The songs Tezeta & Ambassel are the first recordings in a series of vibrant new interpretations of iconic traditional Ethiopian songs that will be released as her debut solo album CD later this year.
Haymanot performs solo & with her trio, and also with two London-based ensembles Mook & Newanderthal. Live performances include at WOMAD Charlton Park, Celebrating Sanctuary Southbank & Rich Mix, at Journeys Festival Leicester, Platforma Festival & Conference Leicester & Manchester, Talking Gigs Sheffield, and in front of the House of Commons at the recent Partners for Change Ethiopia event.
