Henry Katamba Biography

Henry Katamba is a celebrated UK-based Ugandan artiste. Born in masaka in 1983 to Margaret Nalukenge and the late Charles Ssemwogerere, Katamba got exposed to the stage and the audience at the age of seven, singing in school and church choirs.

Katamba went to Kasubi Church of Uganda for his primary, Kibuli Secondary and eventually London South Bank for his university studies, graduating in Health and Social Care.

Katamba’s break through was in 1999 after his debut song Omutanda afunye omubeezi, a song that was congratulating the King of Buganda upon finding the queen.

Katamba first left Uganda in 2001, a year after the royal wedding.  He returned in 2007 with two songs: Casanova meaning a man who dates each and every woman that he comes across and Abakazi tebakyakuula.

Spending most of his days in the UK has not stopped him from getting recognised in Uganda and recording new music.

Katamba has shared international stages with artistes like Chaka Demus and Pliers, Diamond Platinum and the late Lucky dube.
