Born on 10^th January 1949, Paul Dobson Nyirongo rose to take his place at the top of Zambian Music in the 1970s. He became popular as the band leader of the ‘Ngozi Family’, a Band which made a mark as a top local rock group and was one of the first groups to have dubbed its type of music ‘Zamrock’. Paul was also known for his unique prowess with the guitar, plucking guitar strings with rare expertise and at times even using his teeth to play his music. His stage act became admired as one of the best of its time and this earned him respect as master of his trade both locally and internationally.

 

Later as ‘Paul Ngozi’ he continued to warm hearts of his fans with captivating lyrical content in his music. He earned his place as a ‘sharp’ social commentator because the themes of his music were usually very close to society’s own lives and therefore easy to relate to.
