Bio Chikomo Marimba is a high-energy, Zimbabwean-style marimba ensemble based in Asheville, North Carolina. Founded over a decade ago, the group is known for its joyful, danceable music that blends traditional Shona melodies with modern African-inspired rhythms. The ensemble features a range of marimbas—soprano, tenor, baritone, and bass—crafted from local hardwoods by the group’s director, Steve Kemble. These instruments are complemented by additional percussion, including drum kits and claves,
