DARK SUBURB steps out with THE AWAKENING CONCERT
Dark Suburb, Ghana’s only Alternative Rock Band, is performing at the
Awakening Concert scheduled for Saturday 7th of February at Alliance
Francaise.
The concert will feature Noella Wiyaala, afro Soul singer Eli among
several others.
Dark Suburb is an Alternative Rock Band caught between the worlds of the
seen and the unseen; the living and the dead.
They have been invoked back to life by a priest disenchanted with the
current state of the music industry.
So he travels to the underworld to
recruit the best singer, drummer, guitarist and pianist to form a great band
for the ages. But alas! Before the band can make a transition to the land of
the living, they must be accepted by the living. The more they are loved,
the more they will be revealed.
They draw their breath, their form, their strength from the vitality of the
living. And so for now Dark Suburb is an apparition, their music echoing from
the shadows. The more they are loved, the more they will be revealed.
Dark Suburb is barely a year old but it has already garnered a good
following and generated a large amount of curiosity among music lovers
in and out of Ghana, all wanting to know more about this mysterious band.
With a 5 track EP and 3 music videos racking in thousands of views, Ghana’s alternative
rock band, Dark Suburb, is finally ready to step out with several concerts this year
starting with The Awakening Concert.
The event will commence at 6pm and the audience will have the opportunity to purchase Dark Suburbs EP and merchandise.

King Ayisoba, an award winning artiste renowned worldwide,
has made great waves with his kologo sounds since he was discovered
in the Ghanaian music scene in 2005.

from northern Ghana with a show dubbed “Batakari Night”. Also referred to as
fugu, batakari is made of hand loomed strips of cotton. The strips are sewn
together by hand of machine and usually have embroidery on the neckline.
Making of batakari has created employment opportunities for many people in
the north.
King Ayisoba’s style of music is melodic and percussive at the same time and
he has displayed diversity and innovation by using traditional instruments together with hiplife (a style that emerged in Ghana in the mid-90s and contains hip hop and dancehall elements) beats, bleeps and bass.
His lyrics are very personal, sometimes funny, often urgent and always imaginative
