Nkulunguana is led by Mozambican drummer Arnaldo Gueze. The band originates in the environment at Trøndertun folk high school, where Arnaldo spends a year as a participant through the MOVE exchange project.

The band presents a mixture of traditional rhythms and popular music from Mozambique in East Africa. "Afrojazz" is a term that is often used for this music. Under Arnaldo's expert leadership, the 8-strong team has really got a swing at the African tradition. This is a band that is hard to sit still to.
