Never Heard of Zenana? Turns Out Their Forgotten 1986 Song Might Just be Europe's Next Club Banger

  • Resumen

  • The all-female trio, made up of Anita Gabrielle Tedder, Penny Griffiths and Ruth Elder, have been signed to an Amsterdam record label nearly 40 years after releasing their sole recording – and the only single they released together is proving a smash in clubs across Europe. Zenana, whose name is Persian for "of the women", formed in 1983 and after building a cult local following around Milton Keynes, signed with the independent record label PRM and in 1986 recorded their sole single, "Witches", a synth-heavy number that drew on the emerging Chicago House sounds while keeping a firmly poppy sensibility (imagine Bananarama after a visit to the Hacienda). Abbot began playing the song at his own DJ nights, before sharing the single with other DJs, where it picked up a following in clubs in Los Angeles, Vienna, Paris and Amsterdam… and has now led to the Dutch label Rush Hour signing Zenana on a fresh deal.
