Dimitri & The Scarecrow is a musical concept that explores perspectives from artist (Dimitri D. Kwenda) in juxtaposition to a "Scarecrow." The Scarecrow is the prevalent metaphor of the muted defender/protector of a harvest which never yields to his/her/our/their needs/desires. Born, raised and nurtured in Zimbabwe, the musical range of Dimitri & The Scarecrow is best described as Hip-Hop, Alternative & Fusion. The writing contained is often done with poetic application and a great deal of attention to detail, with very intentional nuancing. The mood is prevalently of a pensive, groovy and lounge energy with production chosen to lure the listener into the detail of the messaging. Dimitri D. Kwenda writes, produces, sings and arranges most of the music but always remains open to collaborations with artists with whom he connects. Having traveled and settled in various countries on the African content, his expression continues to evolve.
