Ah ! Kwantou - Ah ! Kwantou (2025) [Hi-Res]

Formed in 2019, Ah! Kwantou is a group of seven musicians led by the guitar and voice of Kyekyeku, a Ghanaian singer-songwriter from Accra. He has collaborated with world-renowned musicians such as Blick Bassy, Mayra Andrade, Luedji Luna, Pat Thomas, Ebo Taylor, Ambolley, and Rocky Dawuni.

Based in southwestern France, the group was born out of Kyekyeku’s desire to collaborate with musicians from diverse backgrounds such as Hip Hop, Neo Soul, Jazz, Funk, and even Ambient Rock. Their strength lies in their shared passion for the energy and intricate polyrhythms of African music, as well as their ability to invite audiences to dance.

Ah! Kwantou’s music draws from African folk and trance. At times light and popular, at times powerful and profound, it navigates between Pop and Highlife, Afrobeat, and Caribbean.
