Kora @ The Corner Hotel 23rd March

Post by bassfreak »

Fri 23 Mar
Doors: 8.30pm
$26+BF


KORA have taken their home country by storm. Releasing their EP VOLUME in mid 2004, mastered by Mu from Fat Freddy’s Drop, it reached No.2 on the Independent Music New Zealand (charts), No. 1 on Groove Guide New release charts and No.3 on Amplifier’s 2004 best sellers list. VOLUME has now gone gold in New Zealand and is distributed in Australia through Inertia. KORA recently won a Bnet award for best Dub and Reggae release 2006 in New Zealand. KORA is a force to be reckoned with; their funky, heavy, mesmerizing plethora of sonic dub delights is not to be missed!


Dont miss this. These guys will blow your socks off!
They stole the show from Salmonella Dub on the Dub Conspiracy tour

Spoke to one of them when they were over here last year and he said they would have an album out sometime this year. So fingers crossed it's an album release tour! They do have an EP out though

We're going to delay our trip out of town for a night to celebrate with you whatever you're up to...unless it's a quiet night in....unless there's a key party :twisted:

Theres a good buzz round about them. Plus if 0.5% of the 70,000 kiwis in Victoria turn up theres half your crowd.

For those that didnt go, your all losers!

Awesome show. Kora's first ever solo tour and they sold out The Corner Hotel!

Best show of the year.
Throw into one big melting pot:
Phat skanking Dub
Slowed down metal riffs
a splattering of dnb
4 maori boys and one token white boy
.................and you have Kora, Hell yeah!
