Liner notes
Night to Night is best described as a 24-hour daydream, a soundtrack to a life taking in memories of the Ugandan capital Kampala’s late-night bars, of evenings lulled by the sound of the seven-stringed nanga harp, and of love stolen away on the Eurostar.
Cajun producer/guitarist Daniel Lanois sings in remembrance of a woman called “Christine,” while Oryema evokes an Everypoet figure on “Miracle Man” and sings of the Parisian Metro, where the outside is only bearable underground.
Expansive guitars and multi-textured percussion blend and vie with the whimsical, the melodic, and the mesmeric. This is Geoffrey Oryema at his most universal, a man forever influenced by his African heritage but expressing himself in English and opening wide to Jean-Pierre Alarcen’s pop rock roots. A unique talent whose musical identity has been established away from the confines of simple categorisation.
