Ochieng KabasellehIn a bid to redeem the glory of the former leader of Orchestra Lunna Kiddi, the late Ochieng’ Kabaselleh, his children are out to revive the legendary Rhumba band. With the death of Kabaselleh in 1998, the popularity of the band (Orchestra Lunna Kiddi), waned and died. However, there seems to be hope for the Orchestra Lunna Kiddi band since Kabaselleh’s children are determined to bring it back. These bands include Orchestra Kidi Masanga led by Reggy Kabaselleh, and the defunct Orchestra Lunna Kiddi which was briefly led by Joel Okello Babu and musician Dorry Kabarry. However, the new band will have a new name, that is, Bana Ba Kadorry Orchestra (The Children of Dorcas Orchestra in Lingala dialect), as championed by Reggy Kabaselleh.
