something to take away
Staff Benda Bilili
Staff Benda Bilili and a comment from the Deutsche Welle item about them. The band's name Staff Benda Bilili roughly translates as "bring forth the invisible".
They call themselves "Staff Benda Bilili": eight musicians who all suffer from polio. Their instruments are homemade, and in some cases even invented by their players. They live outdoors on the streets of Kinshasa, the capital city of the Democratic Republic of Congo and were brought together by their love of music and life, their wit and their musical talent. Now they are touring across Europe.
