KOKOROKO return with this exclusive Double A Side vinyl of ‘Baba Ayoola’ and ‘Carry Me Home’ released via Brownswood Recordings on 25th June 2021. Both singles achieved huge support upon digital release by BBC Radio, BBC 6 Music, 1Xtra, Afropunk, Clash, Rolling Stone France & NPR. ‘Baba Ayoola’ was written as a tribute to the grandfather of the band’s alto saxophonist Cassie Kinoshi and is ‘an invitation to celebrate life’. Whilst ‘Carry Me Home’ was inspired by conversations with the masterful Dele Sosimi, whose technical ability in bridging the gap between the West African afrobeat sound of his roots, and the London energy of his upbringing, has directly informed the ever-impressive capabilities demonstrated by London’s eight-piece collective, KOKOROKO.
