“If you don’t know who Kora are, it’s high time you found out. This band has got to be one of the most diverse, energetic and exciting acts around…their live show is “oh my god who the hell are these guys”…” The Set ABC TV

Kiwi self described “heavy-metal-dub-funk-blues", five piece Kora return to Australian shores in Septemeber for a run of east coast dates. In the three years since their maiden voyage across the Tasman, Kora have expanded their fan base outside of Kiwi expats thanks to their dynamic and awe inspiring live sets.

Sharing the stage with diverse acts such as Spearhead, Cog and Salmonella Dub on various tours and gracing the stages of festivals such as The Big Day Out and WOMAD, is testament to the bands sonic diversity.

Their debut self-titled album, Kora was released in Australia in February this year to rave reviews, following a number one debut and platinum sales in New Zealand.

“Kora emerge with a pulsating instrumental build up that pushes closer and closer to epic heights of tension before a snap change turns the intense vibe on its head; the soulful dub drop takes the crowd by surprise and leaves my jaw on the floor.” Rave Magazine
