OUR FEATURE DOCUMENTARY “WE INTEND TO CAUSE HAVOC”

// We are currently in post production of our new feature documentary “We intend to cause Havoc”!

Presented by Pantheon Pictures and Clam Jam Productions

Directed by Gio Arlotta

Written & Produced by Gio Arlotta & Tim Spreng

 

WITCH (We Intend To Cause Havoc) were the biggest rock band in Zambia in the 1970s and spearheaded a new genre dubbed Zamrock, fusing influences that ranged from the Rolling Stones to Black Sabbath and James Brown and mixing them with traditional African rhythms and bush village songs. At the peak of their popularity, the band often needed police to keep fans at bay while their lead singer Jagari – whose name is an Africanisation of Mick Jagger’s – riled up crowds by stage diving from balconies and dancing manically as the WITCH’s blend of psychedelic rock and African rhythms permeated the surrounding atmosphere.
