INDAH'S MUSIC CAREER
He had the tendency of going to night clubs in the evening after job, this was mostly where Ohangla was playing live around Huruma. Every weekend, he could walk around in clubs for live band and sit next to podium just to study the performance. The exchange of hands with sticks across and over the drums impressed him most. He could enjoy by nodding his head and demonstrate jovially just as the drummers performed their crafts.

Nice songs of Emma Jalamo (who is also his paternal UNCLE) with the rich voice he longed to adopt, the welcoming band crew inspired him most when he attended their shows more so at Starehe Hotel in Huruma. He could go by stage and pick up the shakers and shake, sit by the Drum-sets and play them just to show his interest in music. There and then, he was granted a chance to join Ramogi Ohangla Rhumba (R. O. R) led by Emma Jalamo mainly because of his cooperation, being active and quick response whenever he was called upon.
At R. O. R, he was in a mission of being keen, studying and following every instructions. He wanted to be a Musician not a shaker or a drumist! His commitment saw him promoted to be the curtain raiser and the backup singer to Emma Jalamo. Now this was it; an apportunity that he couldn't let go!
