Hado Deeli (feat. Wiyaala)
A 1 track afro soul single (4m 9s) — released June 23rd 2023 on Wah Wah 45s
"Hado Deeli" is the first single to be taken from the forthcoming "Kontonbili EP" by Ghanaian - UK outfit Isaac Birituro & The Rail Abandon. Following on from the successes of their first two LPs, "Kalba" and "Small Small", the transcontinental group return with the first song to be taken from a seven track EP that traces the traditional West African roots of their sound whilst adding their unique touch, largely courtesy of Isaac's xylophone, Sonny Johns' folky embellishments and the vocal prowess of powerful Ghanaian songstress Wiyaala.
The title "Hado Deeli" roughly translates to "My Rival" and is a vibrant discussion between two rivals, one of whom is always making a fuss about anything and everything, even when things are all good! The kind of person that makes a habit of pointing out the negative side of everything he or she (in this case) is given to do.
With a strong fanbase in Ghana and beyond, Wiyaala made her mark on Wah Wah 45s and BBC 6 Music last year when she featured on the A-listed "Senye", described as "perfection" by Annie Mac and "pure joy!" by Tash LC.
The "Kontonbili EP" is set for release on July 28th. Artwork comes courtesy of Animisiewasz.
