List Of Kenyan Girl Bands you didn’t know Existed

Kenya has a rich musical heritage, but finding an all-girl ensemble that has been together for a long time is difficult. This is a list of Kenyan Girl Bands that have been in the music scene, though unpopular.

Several all-boys bands have thrived on the waves and even made it to the worldwide stage. Kleptomaniacs, P Unit, Sauti Sol, Deux Vultures, Kelele Takatifu, Christ Cycos, Amos and Josh, Gospel Fathers, and Kymo &Stigah are a few examples. Recapp, Adawanage, Necessary Noize, Camp Mulla, and Elani are some other girl-boy bands.

Some of the bands named above have split up, while others have remained together.

As you can see, girls-only bands have not been included, not because they do not exist, but because there are very few who have entered into the media or remained intact for an extended period of time.

In this article, we look at Kenyan  girl bands that made waves in the music industry after breaking into the media.

BeCa is an all-female band led by two extremely excellent singers, Becky Sangolo and Carol Kamweru, and the name is derived from the first two initials of the members’ names. Beca are undoubtedly Kenya’s best all-girl band right now.

Their singles such as Brathe, Toka, and Tonight catapulted these stunning ladies to fame, and they have even recorded at The Coke Studio Africa.

Tattu, a three-piece band (Angela, Debbie Asila, and Shinde), was popular in 2002-2003 for hit songs like Teso, Songea, Yu Wapi, and Daima.
Until they split up, the all-girl three was perhaps the best female music group at the time.
