KOKOROKO announce debut album 'Could We Be More'

Following on from a flurry of exciting releases over the last few years, KOKOROKO have now announced their plans for their debut studio album, arriving later this year.

The new full-length 'Could We Be More' will include the previously shared cut 'Something's Going On', is being previewed by the new lead single 'We Give Thanks', and is set to be released on the 5th August via Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood Recordings.

Speaking about the new offering, they said, “We were imagining playing live with this one - it's definitely written with that energy we get towards the end of a set. Some shows, like La Cigalle in Paris or Paradiso in Dam have legit felt magical for us & you always want to give that energy back. This is us trying to do that.”
