Kunta Kinte
Stress

unsigned

WE SAY

The best description we’ve seen of London-based Kunta Kinte is “Adam Ant meets Scissor Sisters”. With a genuinely different sound and an entertaining live show, Kunta Kinte blend tribal percussion with quirky English guitar songs. They look and sound like no other act we’ve seen in recent times. Flowing from camp, dressed up pop songs to stomping rhythmic numbers like this, they’re certainly an engaging prospect. They are currently seeking management. JF London Gig: Hoxton Bar & Kitchen on 16 May, 21:30
