Meet! Ekky - singer from Uganda

Ekky

Anybody who follow my blog since the beginning, will notice my love for Ugandan music. I fell in love 2009 when I listened to my first Ugandan song by the artist David Lutalo ft. Bebe Cool which was "I can see" I listened to that song many times a day but I wouldn't be fed up with it, up till now it is one of my favorite songs. Especially the female artist got my attention, such as Blue 3, Ray C, Sylvia Namugenyi, JulianKanyomozi, Rema, Benah Namisinga just to mention a few.  

So the day before yesterday I was browsing the Internet when I came across the video of the Dance group Tabu Flo which I shared here

The song used in that video was from the Ugandan songstress Ekky, the songs name is Do you remember me I loved it from the first beat, so I tried to find out more about her music, and what can I say;  she is great!
Ekky is a singer and songwriter residing in Ugandan capital city Kampala.

She is the daughter of a neurosurgeon (father) and a banker (mother), she has one little brother. She moved to London to persue her studies in the Aberystwyth University in Wales. In 2009 she gradueted with an LLB law degree. She worked shortly in London but decided to return to Uganda to follow her dream of becoming a singer.

A bad day recently has a witch doctor from Uganda. Mr Muwanga Jjaaja Benedict, a practicing witch doctor and also chairperson of witch doctors in his area is accused of stealing property from a pentecostal church.
Trouble begun when Jjaaja Muwanga tried to sell one of the stolen speakers which one of the residents was able to identify as one of the missing property from the church .He made an alarm and Jjaaja Muwanga was arrested.

The angry residents destroyed his Shrine and set it on fire. TV set, Amplifiers and Microphones were among the stolen items.Police is still investigating.

Well, times are tough, even for witch doctors.
