Gallo Vault Sessions
by KONJO
Gallo Vault Sessions is a 6-part podcast series brought to you by Gallo in collaboration with KONJO. We delve into the story of Gallo Music, Africa’s largest and oldest recording company, and reflect on the ways music shapes culture, and how our culture has been shaped by music…both at the centre and periphery of Africa’s music history. We bridge 95 years of Gallo’s music history with KONJO’s passion for cultural storytelling and chat with artists, label execs, radio veterans and music thinkers as we explore the undercurrents, backstories and overlooked tapes from the Gallo Vault…from mbaqanga to soul, and of course, provide you with a curated playlist to soundtrack your month.
