Bio
Reminiscent of the streets of Ghana, West Africa; keshie is a unique combination of songwriters from Melbourne who are giving Afro grooves their own little Aussie twist.
Meeting unknowingly in 2007, three of keshie's members were thrown together to perform a Zimbabwean inspired pop song written by founding member Alena Schneider. After this performance, the spark was ignited and it was back to the work shed. In late 2007, the performers received a call about an idea for a band.
Throughout 2008, keshie worked on defining their musical style to stay clear of the orchestrated singer/songwriter feel and focused on writing in the style of festival music, with the same vibe that both percussionists in the band experienced whilst studying traditional drumming in West Africa.
Members of the band have performed at Festivals all over Australia including Falls Festival, High Vibes Music Festival, Queenscliff Music Festival, Port Fairy Folk Festival, St.Kilda Festival and plan on doing it all again.
After much anticipation, Keshie are back on the scene in 2009 with high energy shows that will get your booty shaking!
