Mumbuni

Mumbuni is a band from Tempe, Arizona. Jonathan Mafi - vocals David Pond - Drums, Josef Boning on Guitar. live by summer, album by EOY.

We are a new band hailing from Tempe, Arizona in the US. Hi. My name is Mafi. We're heading to a 4 or 5 or maybe even 6 piece.. but currently there are 3 of us. I grew up in Mumbuni where there was this amazing 700 year old tree called a Mumbu tree. The Mumbu tree died in 2006 but it came calling me in 2024 with something of an origin story that started this band and brought actually all 3 of the current members out of remission - but holy crap y'all what's emerging is so fun and fresh and cool - almost can hardly wait to share with with the world. Until then, I'll share the demos where I aimed to get the ideas cogent enough to just jump in with a band and boy has that been the right plan and working so so well. Ok TLDR alert - cheers. thank you for taking a moment here.

Lyrics

You can always change your life in a second if you like
All it takes a mind is shifting New behavior do it different 
follow through by sticking with it then all you need is the repetition 
Until its just your way of life
Do you really want this progress, then why dont you make it imminent
When you pay attention 
do it while you feel the sentiment
When you have that extra energy to turn a thought into efficiency
you know that thoughts become decisions by being honest, by consistently 
practicing noticing moments then do it over and over practice then practice remain and re-focus do it over and over 
So can we be a little kinder? 
Shine our light a little brighter?
Yeah when you look inside with honest eyes
Youll know the truth youll know the lies
You dont need proof they both abide
So dont be fooled by your disguises
Let your self examination lead into a revelation
Tuning in your jobs to listen no destination just persistence
Recalibrate until you witness something in yourself waking up rearrange, emanate 
And youll find that youre awakening already wiser - some things just take that much time here
Connected space our tiny place it is where we are make all our memories but the truth is all those are are fabrications 
Made to help us think that we are the same going frame to frame and from day to day when underneath were only particles and waves and fields made up all our information 
so can we have some imagination 
on how we leave more than were taking?
Need it over and over and over be patient
Need it over and over and over be patient
Practice returning to moments and over and then over
Practicing only the moment over and over and over
Practice only the moment over and over and over 
Can we be a little kinder? Shine our light a little brighter?  Until its just your way of life
