Kokoroko - Could We Be More

Kokoroko's debut album draws together Afrobeat, highlife, soul and funk through the experiences of its eight London-based musicians. Could We Be More explores a sense of home shaped by connections to West Africa, the Caribbean and London, with brass, percussion, guitar, bass and keyboards sharing the arrangements. The psychedelic funk of Something's Going On sits alongside We Give Thanks and Age of Ascent, while shorter pieces connect the fifteen-track sequence. Released by Brownswood Recordings in 2022, the album expands the group's sound beyond the early EP that introduced Abusey Junction.
