You love Epitonic too? Yay.

You should check out Konono No1. They're a steet corner band from Kinshasa. I heard them on "All Things Considered" yesterday and I've been in love with them since.

yes! what a wonderful website. So informative!
I all ATC. wait a minute...maybe I heard this?
Is the band formed with really old people and young people that sang in street corners with a dancing bear at one point??

[destroy666]

They sang on street corners. I don't remember anything about a bear.

They have all these instruments made of scrap metal and they play "thumb pianos" which they amplify out of really crappy amps so they sound distorted. Plus they sing through wooden megaphones. It's super cool.

i have a thumb piano and it's way wicked and fun. I must hear this music
