highlife music who are not familiar with the guitar
rhythms of Alfred Kari Bannerman. Over the course
of two decades, he has become Ghana's most renowned
guitarist.
Kari's credits include recording and touring with
Osibisa, and with some of West Africa's most celebrated
highlife artists - from legends E.T. Mensah. and
S.E Rogie to contemporaries like Kojo Antwi and
Bunny Mack.
On the Jazz & Blues circuit also, his talents have
received considerable recognition and he has performed
with Ronnie Laws, Hugh Masekela and Peter Green
of Fleetwood Mac fame. Now with his own band Boombaya
his musical influences converge to create an exciting
blend that offers a fresh and contemporary approach
to highlife, which retains its soul and swing, but
also adds jazz and urban music nuances. |
