King Ayisoba
The Fox and Firkin, SE13 6JZ , [Venue Details]Born in 1974, near Bolgatanga, northeast Ghana, King Ayisoba plays Kologo (small guitar with two strings attached to a calabash) from a young age. He took care of livestock & carries his instrument in the bush & villages, where he discovered traditional harmonic ceremonies & ancestral rites!
He joined the capital and plunged into the Accra cosmopolitan urban jungle, and a draft style between tradition and modernity. He met Terry Bonchaka, whom he worked with for several years, and Panji Anoff, the music producer.
His first album « Modern Ghanians « was recorded in 2006 The album was immediately welcomed by the Ghanaian public. The single « I want to see you my father» won the Ghana Music Awards in 2007, King was invited to participate in numerous collaborations.
