"The band cooks with spare, snappy grooves grounded in percussion but rich with melodies... Recorded amid rising political turmoil in Ethiopia and finished in time for a 2020 tour that was not to be, all of which makes its arrival that much more welcome." -- Banning Eyre, Afropop Worldwide.
"Qwanqwa has always occupied a unique space in the globally-facing East African music scene, layering grooves from across the Horn into hypnotic, string-driven interpretations of folk traditions and pop songs that feel bright and unique, with plenty of room for dancing. Volume Three is no exception." -- Adriane Pontecorvo, PopMatters
