Goats, Tea and Trouble began as a slow-burning fable set on Africa’s western coast: a night of firelight, tea, goats, stolen cloth, village gossip and a shepherd who carries an old curse with more humour than fear.

This song is the echo of that story: a soundscape born from a nomad’s bonfire, a missing cloth, a restless herd, and the quiet resistance of people who still live by rhythms older than modern convenience. Before or after you listen, read the story that inspired it.
