Azalitaaba is a newly formed creative and cultural ensemble whose name, drawn from the Frafra language, means “togetherness” The group brings together leading traditional artists from Ghana’s Upper East Region with collaborators committed to intentional, respectful, and socially grounded working practices. Beyond performance, Azalitaaba embodies a wider philosophy: that cultural expression, community wellbeing, and heritage preservation are inseparable.

Its members are deeply involved in grassroots initiatives supporting women, girls, widowed households, and wider indigenous communities across the Upper East Region to shape an ethos rooted in dignity, participation, and cultural continuity. At the artistic centre of Azalitaaba stands Ayuune Sule, an internationally respected kologo musician and vocalist from Bolgatanga. Known for his powerful stage presence and mastery of the northern Ghanaian kologo tradition, Sule’s music is grounded in lineage while remaining open to contemporary dialogue. He has toured widely, introducing kologo music to audiences around the world and building a reputation for authenticity, emotional force, and artistic integrity.
