Learn Congolese Guitar With Niwel Tsumbu

"Niwel Tsumbu wields an exhilarating guitar style that pulls from jazz, classical, rock, folk and rumba" (Guitarist Magazine).

Back in the day, Niwel Tsumbu was borrowing bits of fishing line and bike cable to build his guitars. Now he’s performed the world over with the likes of Buena Vista Social club, Natty Wailer and Baaba Maal. He’s recorded with Sinead O’Connor, Nigel Kennedy and Michael O’Suilleabhgin. He’s even written a symphony for the radical 20-piece Surge Orchestra and played on the latest grammy award winning album by Rhiannon Giddens.

From Irish folk to jazz, classical, rock and flamenco, Niwel’s story is one of cross-genre, cross-cultural exploration, improvisation, collaboration and integration. Niwel is a guitarist who knows how to practice and knows how to continuously improve.
