Following the afro-soul groove of 'Grass Ain’t Greener', Konkolo Orchestra returns with a new digital single, Will You Miss Me (Vanamai). Once again carried by the deep and expressive voice of Nongoma, the song moves into a more highlife-inspired territory, where bright guitars and a gently swinging rhythm section create an atmosphere that is both warm and nostalgic.

Sung in Shona, a language spoken in Zimbabwe, Zulu (South Africa) and English, the song captures an emotional conflict, leaving someone you still care about, while wondering how they’ll face life without you. As you step away, one question lingers: who will take care of you when I’m gone? While the message is heavy, the rhythm is vibrant and uplifting. Because sometimes letting go is not only an ending, it’s a release. Will You Miss Me (Vanamai) continues Konkolo Orchestra’s musical dialogue between Afro-diasporic influences, soul and contemporary groove.
