Uyoga (formerly Them Mushrooms) is a reggae band from Kenya. Uyoga means 'magic mushrooms' and refers to a mystical species that grows wildly across the depths of Africa’s rain forests. They are seen as East Africa's premier band.
It was made up of Teddy Kalanda Harrison (retired), Billy Sarro Harrison, John Katana Harrison, Dennis Kalume Harrison (now deceased) and George Zirro Harrison who left the group for a solo career. Other musicians have joined the band to keep it going strong.
Their debut song, Jambo Bwana, borrowing from a popular Kenyan folk song of the same name was an instant it in the 1980's.
Their songs have been sampled far and wide all over the world.
One of their hits, Ndogo Ndogo, was adapted as soundtrack of the Paul Singh produced Kiswahili language film titled Mahari.
