TalkingGigs: Krar Collective

The HUBS, 6 Paternoster Row, Sheffield

Krar Collective are a London-based three piece band who joined Damon Albarn’s UK train tour in 2012.  Six years on they have toured the US, performed at the Montreal Jazz Festival and played stages like Paris’ Musee du Quai Branly.

​Led by krar player Temesgen Zeleke, a former student of Ethio-jazz legend Mulatu Astatke, they perform a rootsy yet contemporary take on traditional music from Ethiopia based on other-worldly modes and driven by hypnotic rhythms.

A huge thank you to TalkingGigs for continuing to raise funds for ASSIST with each of their gigs.
