about
Kofi is a Ghanaian highlife legend. He formed the Okukuseku International Band in Accra in 1969, released albums throughout the 70s and became one of Ghana's top acts by the time he left for Nigeria in 1979. He kept recording in Eastern Nigeria, incorporating musical elements from this other highlife hotbed. He now lives between Ghana and Nigeria and occasionally plays for Ghanaians abroad, but has yet to truly breakthrough. Akwaaba will release a number of remastered tracks from his extensive body of work.
