Kinobe & Soul Beat Africa represent the new vanguard of Ugandan performers, gifted instrumentalists steeped in the music of their homeland, but with ears opened to the sounds of the world at large. Traditional African instruments – koras, kalimbas, adungus, endongos, drums – blend with guitars, drawing on influences from around the globe.

Kinobe (pronounced “CHI-NO-BÉ”) is an extraordinary talent from Uganda whose early abilities in traditional African music quickly garnered acclaim on the world stage. He is a lifelong student, teacher, lover, and purveyor of the great diversity of African and world musical traditions.

Kinobe & Soul Beat Africa have been performing for more than a decade, and in the past few years they have brought their show to audiences across Europe and Africa. Currently touring the US and Canada in 2010.
