The fast rising dance music troupe's new album, titled 'Kikao cha Wahenga', is set to be launched in Morogoro on August 7.
Waluguru Original Band's Director, Deogratius David 'Killer Man', mentioned the last track to be completed today as 'Cha Kupewa'.
David disclosed that production for other tracks, namely 'Mwanzo wa Mapenzi', 'Ngalile Mwanangu Ndole', 'Supu', 'Nataka Nilewe' and 'Morogoro Yetu', has already been done.
The musician stated the band came to the city last week to record the songs but they had yet to complete production for the last track.
He noted they have, therefore, come to complete the production with a view to concentrating on preparations for the album launch.
"We expect to launch our album on August 7, we will accompanied by prominent dance musician, Ally Choki, and The Bambazi Band, led by Mulemule 'FBI', we are thus about to complete production of the last song today,'' he disclosed.
He said once the band finishes the track's production, they will go back to Morogoro to continue preparing for the album launch, which will also see several other musicians perform at the event.
"Waluguru Original Band has invited Choki and The Bambazi Band given they are some of our close friends and colleagues in the music scene that have been performing with us in our shows,'' he disclosed.
David said the album launch will be accompanied by Mulemule, who will also launch his band on the day.
He said Mulemule has opted to launch his band in Morogoro with a view to boosting his band's number of fans. The Bambazi Band is based in Dar es Salaam. "The album's launch is one of our efforts to see to it that Morgoro regains the enthusiasm the region had in dance music in the past,'' he stated.
The region's love for dance music, according to David, started waning in the late 1970's.
He said Morogoro had in the past turned out to be among regions which held sway, when it came to grooming prominent dance musicians.
The musicians include legend, Mbaraka Mwishehe.
He pointed out that he is, for that matter, working hard to see to it Morogoro recaptures its enthusiasm in dance music.
