THE Wild Hare Club returns to De Koffie Pot on Friday, February 10 with Koral Society, 'musically astonishing' trio featuring guitar, double bass and kora weaving wonderful melodies and rhythms around some heartfelt songs.

African kora player, Mosi Conde, not only adds beautiful melodic flourishes and subtle African rhythms to Caroline Trettine’s guitar-led songs but also sings. Together these two duet while all the time there is the subtle underpinning of Alison Rayner’s double bass. .

The kora is a West African harp with 21 strings built from a large calabash which is cut in half and covered with cow skin to make a resonator with a long hardwood neck. Mosi Conde, like everybody in his family in Conakry (Guinea), is a griot, that is to say he is one of a long line of musicians who serve as the traditional historians, genealogists and storytellers for their communities and who pass their skills and knowledge on the next generation. Read more about his story as recounted to BBC Radio 3’s World on Your Street.

Koral Society will be at De Koffie Pot on Friday, February 10 from 8pm. Square Peg will start the evening’s performance. For further information, visit wildhareclub.com
