Popular sungura musician Alick Macheso has made a U-turn and hired another chanters, barely a week after he announced that his band does not need chanters any more because they make too noise.
Last weekend Macheso introduced new chanter Zhili Mumbamulapi at his shows.
The former Real Sounds of Africa chanter was first introduced on Friday at Pamuzinda Highway X-scape where the musician had a show.
The new chanter is still to make his presence felt in the band because his first days in office were pathetic.
He had to be told what to do by other band members.
Speaking to NewsDay, Macheso's assistant manager Jatiel Machanja said the new chanter is still on probation.
"He (Macheso) is an artiste and he is the one who decides if he can take him or not, but for now we haven't yet made any agreement with the new chanter," Machanja said.
