Larry Maluma is a Zambian reggae artist based in Australia. He left Zambia in 1985. He is an accomplished musician, composer and singer. He sings in a combination of English and Zambian languages, Nyanja, Bemba and Tonga, adopting styles which he has used to blend his own brand of roots music. The resulting unique sound has put some of his songs at the top of the Zambian charts.[1][2][3][4][5]

Music career

Since arriving in Australia in 1985, Maluma has broadened the Australian perspective of African music. He has released 12 albums [5][6] and more than 15 music video clips which have been aired on the ABC program Rage.
