| | Kokolo Love International CD - Import Kokolo Discography of CDs
In just a few years, KOKOLO's infectious blend of social commentary, charisma and musical appeal has taken them from the tangled streets of their native New York to the world's stage, firmly establishing them as premier innovators in rhythm-based music, and drawing scores of afro-beat lovers, funk heads, salsa aficionados, dance club punters and jazz connoisseurs along the way. KOKOLO (a name derived from Spanish-Harlem slang used to describe hardcore followers of afro music) formed in May 2001, at a time when the Big Apple's nu afro-beat scene began to take shape. Formed by lead singer and songwriter Ray Lugo and English trombonist Chris Morrow, the duo soon blossomed to eight core members, and within two months became mainstays at New York's venue for the avant-garde, the Knitting Factory. Turning to the DIY ethic of his formative punk days, Lugo self-produced and released the octet's urgent "Fuss and Fight" debut through a deal with England's Afrokings label in 2002. . That same year, KOKOLO undertook the first of many visits to the U.K., giving European audiences an initial taste of the live energy the band is known for.

With the release of GET LUCKY, Mark Knopfler has made as many solo studio albums as he made group studio albums with Dire Straits, which itself may be a signal that it's time to stop comparing his two careers and simply accept them as separate entities. Of course, since Knopfler was the lead singer, chief instrumentalist, and songwriter for Dire Straits, there are obvious similarities, even if he has taken ...

With the 2002 release of her CD Mr. Heart, Amy Fairchild has come into her own. Critical acclaim gathered fast for this self-released effort. According to Steve Morse of the Boston Globe, Fairchild is "...on the verge of big things." In the words of rock critic Dave Marsh, "If there still was a recording industry, this would come out on a major label...and would be such a big hit that you'd be sick of her by now. Not many people make records this good". Album Network says, "Reminiscent of Sheryl Crow, Fairchild effortlessly delivers natural lyrics and organic vocals while her band keeps it rocking. This stuff is really cool." Seth Rogovoy, in the Dec 6th Berkshire Eagle picked Mr. Heart as one of his top 10 CD Releases for 2002. "Falling Down" from Mr. Heart won Grand Prize in the Pop Category of the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, and was then named the $20,000.00 - Maxell Song of the Year, and In 2003, "Renee" took an unprecedented second straight Grand Prize in that contest's Pop Category, announced on 1/15/04 and in 2004, Mr. Heart (the song) was a finalist in the Folk Category. "Tuesday" a song about Sept 11th won Grand Prize in the Billboard Songwriting Competition in the Country/Folk Category in 2002 and "Renee" took 2nd Place in the Pop Category in 2003. Song placements include "Humble Pie", which was used in an episode of Dawson's Creek and "Beautiful Secret", placed in the national touring company production of Spiderman Live (the show played in 45 major US markets). "Beautiful Secret" was also used in CBS's new hit Joan of Arcadia. Amy was nominated for two 2003 Boston Music Awards, Best Female Vocalist and Best Female Singer/Songwriter. Fairchild's musical career began in Northampton, MA with the release of her first CD "She's Not Herself" which was voted "Album of the Year" by several local papers. She moved to New York City in 1998 and immediately began performing and filling clubs throughout the city. In May of 2001, she won the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk Songwriting Competition, joining a list of winners that includes Lyle Lovett, Steve Earle, Nanci Griffith and Shawn Colvin. She was also the NYC 1999 Lilith Fair Talent Search Winner, and performed at the Jones Beach stop of the tour. In addition to the Lilith Fair headliners, she has shared the stage with such diverse artists as Pat Benatar, The Bacon Brothers, Freedy Johnston, Ben Folds, Joan Osborne and Ellis Paul. Sensitive introspection, a sharp melodic radar, rock and roll's rebellious energy, and an intuitive feel for the understated power of an acoustic guitar and a good lyric all inform her music and distinguish Amy as a dynamic performer. The Berkshire Eagle also picked her performance at Club Helsinki in Gt. Barrington as one of the Top 10 Concerts in 2002 saying "Fairchild combines the literate ...
