This energetic sextet purvey a frothy cocktail of bright
and exciting african/latin american jazz to satisfied
audiences as manic and diverse as the musicians themselves!
Formed in Manchester in the early 1990s the Konkomas
emerged from the ‘Madchester’ years with a high energy
percussive vibe. Primarily playing African rhythms the band
entertained many pubs around Manchester and Macclesfield.
With the arrival of later members a more hybrid vibe of latin
and jazz influenced melodies and beats evolved. Today the
band has an Anglo-Dutch relationship (Pheasant resides in
Holland). Playing together and writing are still top priorities for
this gang of musicians. The Konkomas are ready to play out
the next millennium!
