Stonebwoy’s next stop was at the Uppsala Reggae Festival in Sweden where e proved that language is never a barrier when it comes to the power of music.

From Ghana to Europe: How Stonebwoy and Wiyaala are charming the world with their sounds and talent
The androgynous singer-songwriter from Tumu may have a past as a chorister, but today she means business. In her native Sisaala, Wiyaala means “the doer.” Her pop-inflected tunes appear breezy, but her lyrics are tough on gender equality and male-dominated culture.
She’s so far on top of the list of homegrown musicians flying Ghana’s flag high on the global market with her phenomenal, delightful, powerful and lively stagecraft.
From Sheffield in the UK (where she played twice between May and June), she moved straight to Ljubljana where she played two successive concerts.
She moved back to the UK where she performed with ‘The Refugee Drop In Chair’ in London and continued her tour at Festival Milo Verde in Portugal.
Without taking a break, she quickly moved to Switzerland for the 2019 Afro-Pfingsten Festival and made a stop at Tamboril Fest in Spain.

Holland hosted the “Rock My Body” hitmaker twice at this year’s Houtfestival and Oerol Festival.
She made her way to Germany where she performed at the 2019 Fusion Festival, and the Kenako Festival, in Berlin.
Norway hosted her at another top festival, Riddu Riđđu.

Ending July on an impressive note, Wiyaala performed on three occasions in Leeuwarden, Netherlands at the 2019 Welcome to the Village festival.
In August alone, she will perform at eight different concerts and festivals in Europe.
With electrifying and energetic performance, Stonebwoy and Wiyaala have attracted a large fan base which continues to grow across the world.
As the world is now paying attention to African music, hopefully we would see these two Ghanaian musicians perform on the Coachella stage in the very near future.
