Their self-titled debut was released on 24 April 2020 to critical acclaim and garnered praise across German radio and press, web blogs and even led to their national TV debut on German national TV. The band is currently recording its next release, due in 2022.
The band is defiantly cross-genre exploring rock, jazz, Afro-cuban rhythms, West African kora music, high life groove, folk music and other genres which have influenced the three musicians.
