Concert and Barefoot Boogie by Nils Kercher and Kira Kaipainen and @djraisaananda

Kira and Nils oscillate effortlessly between guitar sounds, gripping percussion and the hypnotic sound of the kora, a 21-string African harp.

In refined, yet simple and clearly arranged songs, Nilsand Kira sing about the big and small themes of human existence, with voices that sometimes float transparently and vulnerably through space, then again ride wildly and with earthy power on vibrant rhythms.

"Nils Kercher's pieces glide from atmosphere to atmosphere and between times and continents to weave an organic story. The deep yet playful lyrics from Kira Kaipainen’s pen blend in seamlessly.

The refreshing and unique duo takes you unto a journey through soothing rains, vital grooves and cross-cultural diversity."
