Ghanaian powerhouse King Ayisoba unleashes the raw, hypnotic sound of the kologo, fusing ancient northern Frafra traditions with pounding rhythms, fierce vocals and electrifying contemporary energy. Primal, psychedelic and utterly infectious, this is music with deep roots and a wild pulse!

King Ayisoba, often called “King of Kologo” and “A living legend”, has an unique sound and significant range of voices, which makes him sound like no other.

Coming from a rural area in the far north of Ghana, descending from a Frafra hunting tribe, his performances are full of tribal power, his grandfather’s voices which materializes through his incredible range of deep and loud nasal cries as well as soft high singing accompanied by his kologo. Supported by his band of Frafra musicians, with their mesmerizing infectious beats, high energy dances and singing, King Ayisoba provides captivating stage performances with rhythms going straight to the heart and inner pulse with a touch of repetitive trance. He has a great ability to interact with his audience, reaching the young and old with his straight forward lines, making them respond to his cries and dance along.
