THEO BARD (UK- Woodburner- Anywhere one can busk)

Their catchy folk-pop choruses and carefree vagabond spirit recall The Levellers at their best. But there is much more to this debut from the youthful band formed around singer-songwriter and guitarist Theo Bard.

The lyrics are beautifully judged, taking the universal from personal experience. The music is cosmopolitan, putting English folk music in contact with blues, jazz, and Central European. This is a testament to an exciting new band.      (Songlines Magazine)

LOKKHI TERRA (uk-Bangladesh-Turkey-Cuba)

A Bangladeshi twist on Afro-Latin styles

Lokki Terra have gone from strength to strength since their first gig in 2006 at a concert titled From Bangla-beat to Afro-beat at London's Queen Elizabeth Hall. Co-founded by the classically trained, jazz-minded British Asian pianist Kishon Khan  who has played with everyone from Havana Cultura to Hugh Masekela  this good-natured London-based collective are now widely acknowledged as an international force to be reckoned with. (Songlines Magazine)

Summer smelling, Festival buzzing, loving Lizard Djs will be spinning the decks till Khwaja turns the lights on...

Album Review: Lokkhi Terra – Cubangla [Funkiwala Records; June 2020]

Mother Africa’s children do her proud once more in spreading her spirit across what is a rather large diaspora, considering she spent rather a long time beside humanity’s cradle. And just at the moment where it needs some cajoling to get up and stop feeling sorry for itself, in steps…

Album Review: Lokkhi Terra meets Dele Sosimi – Cubafrobeat [Funkiwala Records; June 2018]

The holy trinity of pleasure, music that serves mind, body and soul. Cubafrobeat simultaneously feeds them all. The new Lokkhi Terra and Dele Sosimi collaboration show off jazzy solos to power your intellect, but never detract from the chance to lose yourself to dance. Brought together by pianist Kishon Khan,…
