Search - Kora :: Kora

After the success of their self-released EP, this debut has been eagerly anticipated. A thoroughly family affair; Brad, Laughton, Francis and Stuart Kora along with Dan McGruer mixing Roots-reggae, Funk and House with Hard rock elements and have taken the band from Whakatane to one of this countries most respected and thrilling live bands. The band first came to public attention with the tracks 'Politician' and 'Burning' and after featuring on numerous prominent Roots-based releases (Conscious Roots and several Loop and Dub Conspiracy comps) they released 'EP Volume' themselves, eventually gaining gold-status in sales. This album has been a long-time coming but it's been well worth the wait. Strong, soulful vocals with that unique brotherly harmony blend couple as well as tight bass-heavy production set Kora ahead of the pack. This album topped the national charts in it's first week of release in New Zealand surely an indicator the caliber of this band? Guaranteed to be the soundtrack of the Summer.
