About Albino Mbie:
Born in Maputo, the capital of Mozambique, Mbie built his first guitar at age 16 from a 5-liter can of oil, scrap wood, and strings made out of electrical cords. Drawn to the sounds of neighborhood street musicians in Maputo, he began to play in a number of local bands. He studied at Berklee and has won numerous awards for songwriting and sound mixing.
