Alogte Oho is the number one Frafra gospel artist from within the vibrant music scene of Bolgatanga in Northern Ghana. Bolgatanga and its environs are the birthplace of most of the musicians in Frafra country and, thus, the cultural epicentre of northern Ghana.
At thirteen, Oho joined the church choir, deeply impressed by its energy and spirituality, and gained his first experience of professional studio recordings. In 2013, Oho met German producer Max Weissenfeldt, with whom he recorded the internationally acclaimed album 'Mam Yinne Wa'. (2013)
In today's episode, I Oho and Max Weissenweldt will take you on a journey to what Frafra Gospel really is, the story of their first meeting in Ghana, and the inspirations behind their latest works; above all, 'O Yinne!' (Album, 2023).
Having the chance to meet Oho and Max was an absolute delight. It provided a valuable opportunity to gain insight into a scene I genuinely hope will flourish and make its mark globally. Enjoy listening! 🎧
