A true force of nature, King Ayisoba is the king of “Kologo Power.” Armed with his kologo, a traditional two-stringed lute, and a powerhouse rasping voice, he brings the raw energy of the Upper East Region of Ghana to the heart of Glasgow. His music is a hypnotic fusion of ancient village traditions and modern urban grit, stripped back to its most essential, percussive elements. Ayisoba’s performances are legendary for their intensity; he is a charismatic storyteller whose songs tackle social issues with a fierce, celebratory spirit. Audience members should prepare for a primal, high-energy experience that bypasses the head and goes straight to the feet. It is raw, rhythmic, and utterly undeniable.
