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.

Story behind the song
about having a crush you shouldn't have on someone who you can tell has a crush back and you can't stop thinking about them but nobody has crossed any lines. The beat was a snippet from the original beat which started on my SP404 mkII and then this little loop felt like a match because it just worked for the whole song and thematically for me as it's like this crush..one note that Tries to change key for the chorus but never actually can.. the feeling carries it back for another loop.
Lyrics
Oh this affection There when I open my eyes There when when I send you goodnight But Im telling you its all of the time This affection Stays with me all the day long No I cant ever outrun these thoughts I try but I cant make them stop I know we connect, that you get me But the part that Im finding so sexy Even if I wouldnt youd let me. All this tension There I cant quiet my mind There in a glance from your eyes Doesnt matter if dark or daylight What Im saying is its all of the time I know we connect, that you get me The part that Im finding so sexy Even if I wouldnt youd let me. We connect, I can tell that you get me But the thing that Im finding so sexy Is that I would say yes if you asked me
