  • Joe & Sekou INTL Album Release PR
    Cumbancha Signs Joe Driscoll & Sekou Kouyate The collaboration between a rapper/beatboxer/singer-songwriter from Syracuse, NY and an electrifying African kora sensation from Guinea pushes genre boundaries and earns raves across Europe. Debut album Faya out in February on Cumbancha Discovery "A gloriously accessible collision of styles. It's an unlikely collaboration that works, magnificently." – The Guardian (UK) "A boundary-trampling high-octane hybrid in which the lightning fast electrified licks of Kouyate are matched by the explosive energy of Driscoll's rapid fire rhyming." – Songlines (UK) Press Materials: www.cumbancha.com/joeandsekou/press Website: joeandsekou.com/ Facebook: www.facebook.com/joedriscollmusic Videos: youtu.be/DSWvlys0NLE / youtu.be/Xf4oemnMPfw The well-worn and often overblown expression "music is a common language" has never been more apropos in the case of Joe Driscoll & Sekou Kouyate. US-born, England-based Driscoll speaks no French and Kouyate, who hails from the West African country of Guinea, little English. When they were brought together at the Nuit Metis (Mixed Night) festival in Marseille, France in 2010 and given a week to produce a concert, music was the only way they could communicate. It turns out, they had a lot to "talk" about, and their first meeting sparked a collaboration that led to the formation of a band, the recording of an album, over 120 concert dates across Europe and rave reviews. Driscoll contributes the rapping, looping, beatboxing and songwriting talents he developed growing up in Syracuse, New York and during his own successful recording career. Kouyate, already a phenomenon in African music circles, has blown minds and ears with his hypersonic electrified riffs on the kora, bringing the exalted West African harp into the 21st Century with use of distortion peddles, effects and previously-unimagined technical prowess.
