Channelling Jagger, blending late 60s psychedelic rock, and reflecting the post-colonial world of Zambia, WITCH blazed a trail across the former British colony fuelled by cash-rich punters and strong governmental support for their output.
By the 80s it had all but burnt out. But WITCH [‘We Intend To Cause Havoc’] have endured, largely due to the 2010s re-release of their fiery Zamrock masterworks by Now Again. A world tour, and a brilliant documentary WITCH: We Intend To Cause Havoc emerged, and now thanks to Banished Music and Strange News Touring WITCH are touring Aotearoa New Zealand with gigs at WOMAD then Auckland and Wellington!
In this special one-off Planet Waves, Phil Grey selects tracks from their 1972-76 heyday, plus selections from this year’s brilliant comeback LP Zango.
