WITCH (We Intend To Cause Havoc)

About

WITCH was a Zamrock band formed in the 1970s. Widely seen as the most popular Zambian band of the 1970s, WITCH (an acronym for "We Intend To Cause Havoc") were formed during Zambia's golden post-independence days, and were headed by lead vocalist Emanuel "Jagari" Chanda. With the economy collapsing in the late-1970s, and increasing government authoritarianism, WITCH, like most Zamrock bands, were reduced to playing daytime shows to avoid the curfews, and faded away. As of 2013, WITCH is back and touring again with the lineup including Chanda as well as new members from the Netherlands, Germany, and Switzerland.
