Album Notes

Kwame D. a duo from Leeds, UK, perform a rich variety of Rhythmic Soul, World Music, infectious Blues and Reggae stylings in roughly equal measure.
In this sound, Africa and the UK come together to form a joyful blend that
"can't fail to move anyone within earshot!"

"…Even though as a duo, Kwame D. are colourful, have great stage presence and the sound of a four-piece band."

Their music has its roots from Kwame's Ghanaian background with influences from soul greats such as Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye, Aaron Neville, Robert Cray, mixed with the african style of artistes such as Salif Keita, Youssou N'Dour, Fela Kuti. The latin influence from Santana and The Gypsy Kings, and reggae from Jimmy Cliff and Bob Marley.

“Kwame’s extraordinary voice — notable for its amazing range, expressive shading and totally natural, unselfconscious emotional power, matched by his strong and idiosyncratic guitar style which incorporates infectious blues, soul and reggae in roughly equal measure.”

Jeff's use of percussive instruments such as the Djembe (originally from the Gambia and Senegal), the Moroccan clay bongos, the dolak from India, the Dabourka, Congas and many more, all in combination with chimes and cymbals, set the seal on Kwame's self-developed percussive guitar style, creating a joyous blend.

Kwame D continuously tour performing to audiences across the UK.
