Charly Eitel - John Howarth - Marla Joy
From England to California by way of Africa, Safari Boots play a unique form of world music. Blending world beats into their mainly original tunes, they create a joyous Afro-Euro fusion: Congolese soukous and rumba, Zimbabwean jit, South African mbaqanga, along with a touch of reggae and a hint of Latin.
John Howarth (vocals, guitar & songwriting) has travelled to some of the most obscure corners of the globe, and found musical inspiration on the way. Marla Joy (bass) and Charly Eitel (drums) are both well known on the local music scene. The band also has a parallel existence in England.
