Bio

KSR lift their voices in a close-harmony often likened to Fleet Foxes or Crosby, Stills and Nash. Crucially though they are also defined by the driving grooves of the Kora and West African rhythms. KSR's music combines real trans-global funkiness with soaring melodies of heart-melting poignancy. It's a genuine collaboration, an exploration of new musical territory brought about by the modern multi-cultural landscapes of both Britain and the Gambia.
