Although Zimbabwe is most famous musically for the local instrument, the mbira, there are several styles of popular music in the country. Mhondoro play in several local genres ranging from the mbira-based Chimurenga music of Thomas Mapfumo, to the fast Jit styles of the Bhundu Boys and Oliver Mtukudzi, to songs by the sungura stars Leonard Dembo and John Chibadura. Mhondoro Rhythm Success is based in Champaign-Urbana, IL. They play popular music from Zimbabwe by artists such as Thomas Mapfumo, Oliver Mtukudzi, John Chibadura, and others. Their members are either from Zimbabwe, have lived there, have studied music there, or just wanted to try and play something completely different from run of the mill rock music.
