    Africulture is the group of energetic and fresh young artists from Coast Region, Bagamoyo. Africulture formed with old students of Bagamoyo College of Arts (Tasuba). In 2005 they officially started the group after some of them completed their studies from Bagamoyo College of Arts. Their music draws inspiration from traditional music styles from Tanzanian tribes and other African tribes of Eastern, Western, and Southern origin. Their sound is driving and syncopated and gets people to dance like nothing else.

    Africulture blends elements of Traditional Dance, acrobatic and theatre. Their music offering a spin on good-time music that is grounded in culture, community, and care for the environment.
