KOKOROKO Release New Single 'Carry Me Home'

March 06 2020 Author • Guest User

Inspired by the wonderful Dele Sosimi & dedicated to Julian Samuel Caulker & Alexander Bamidele Ighamre.

'“Before melody or harmony, there’s rhythm,” cites Sheila Maurice-Grey, the band leader of KOKOROKO, when speaking to Dele Sosimi about musical structure. A profound statement that is reflected through the sonic depths of their hypnotically bracing new single, ‘Carry me home’. The track was inspired by conversations with the masterful Sosimi, whose technical ability in bridging the gap between the West African afrobeat sound of his roots, and the London energy of his upbringing, has directly informed the ever-impressive capabilities demonstrated by London’s eight-piece collective, KOKOROKO.
