Kokoroko waltzed into NPR’s Tiny Desk with butterflies but quickly won over the crowd with their effortless blend of funk, jazz, afrobeats and R&B. Band leader Onome Edgeworth admitted he was bracing for a train wreck, but the “good vibes” and raw talent of this young British crew turned any jitters into pure musical magic.
Their latest album, Tuff Times Never Last, couldn’t have landed at a more relevant moment—its message of choosing joy resonates loud and clear. Live highlights like “Together We Are” and “Idea 5 (Call My Name)” showcase newfound vocal confidence and tight harmonies, making this Tiny Desk session an uplifting dose of sonic sunshine.
