KOKOROKO are a young, London based Afrobeat 8-Piece band led by trumpeter
Sheila Maurice-Grey. We play music we love, we grew up with and our parents got
funky to. Inspired by Fela Kuti, Ebo Taylor, Tony Allen and the great sounds that
come out of West Africa, we put on a performance to honour the masters that taught
us.
We specialise in a soul shaking, horn fueled sound with West African roots and Inner
London hues.
