While most musicians have the convenience of being in a relaxed atmosphere while preparing to produce a record, this was not the situation for the members of the BKO Quintet.
Amidst the revolutionary turmoil which embroiled Mali in late 2012 to the brink of civil war, they maintained focused on their musical endeavor, albeit with a warranted sense of urgency, until with the proper visas and connections they were able to fly to France to produce 'Bamako Today'. Though it took two more years to come to light, the outcome is a remarkable recording which captures the indomitable African spirit to create music against all odds." - All That Jazz, 4th Feb 2015
Following the success of 'Bamako Today', BKO Quintet have toured the world & are currently recording their sophomore album which will be released later this year.
