Their initial lack of means forced H’Sao to develop an original and unique style of a cappella songs. Now they mix their large repertoire of a cappella songs with numbers that include keyboards, djembe, drums, guitar, bass . . . and African dance. H’Sao has filled concert halls in Sweden, Ireland, the United States, Colombia, Canada, South Africa, and Australia with vibrant African rhythms and hopeful words.
