BKO keep their and our spirits up with their own interpretation of Mande music and groovy rock.

BKO (name borrowed from the airport in Bamako) started making music around the conflict in Mali was starting and a whole decade the turmoil still has not ended.

BKO come from a music nation so they respond with music, playing hundreds of concerts in spite of everything and delivering three beautiful albums: “Bamako Today” in 2014, “Mali Foli Coura” in 2017, and most recently “Djine Bora”.

BKO keep their and our spirits up with their own interpretation of Mande music and groovy rock adorned with the reminders of centuries-old rituals, and pulsing with even older rhythms. Mesmerizing music for heart & mind.

Stream “Djine Bora” on Bandcamp.
