KONGOS IN CONCERT:
South African-bred family band Kongos continues to gain fans around the globe with their boot-stomping sound and high-energy live performances. The band's four brothers possess an undeniable chemistry on stage, and their knowledge of both their craft and each other really shine as they tear through tracks like "Come With Me Now" and "I'm Only Joking". With their music receiving heavy radio airplay in the US and Canada, the boys of Kongos are ready and raring for another rollicking round of shows on tour.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Dylan, Daniel, Jesse, and Johnny Kongos were raised splitting time between London and South Africa. Their earliest exposure to music came via their singer-songwriter father, who encouraged them to toy around with the instruments in his home studio. After relocating to their mother's hometown of Phoenix, AZ, they formed their namesake band and began to hone their sound. They released their self-titled debut album in 2007, supporting the record with extensive touring that earned them a strong regional following. They released their sophomore album Lunatic in their native South Africa in 2011, topping several charts in that country with the single "I'm Only Joking". The album was released in the US in 2013 and fared equally well, earning them their first stateside No. 1 with the anthemic hit "Come With Me Now". A phenomenally talented act with big things on the horizon, Kongos continues to floor ticket buyers around the country with their must-see performances on tour.
It was great to sit up close and personal with the band. Loved that picture time with the band was not super rushed so you could get autographs and really introduce yourself to the band and get a few words in. Loved how much music they played for us! Will totally do it again!!!
These guys never fail to bring in a great performance. Full of energy that got the crowd going all night. Can’t wait for their new album.
Kongos never disappoints, and this was no exception. I am usually underwhelmed by the opening acts (at most concerts), but Fitness was a real treat. They are good friends with Kongos, which added to the fun. Except that I would have loved to hear Everything Must Go, the set list was spot on, with a perfect ending!!
A group of us have been following the Kongos since they first came on the scene and they never disappoint. Even if you don't know their music, you will be drawn into their rhythm and lyrics, and when it ends, you will be left wanting more. It was a small show for them compared to some we have seen and they gave it their all - and everyone loved it!
Mingo’s is a great band! Love their music and lyrics.
The show was better than expected and I walked away an even bigger fan than when I walked in. Great interaction with the audience.
Kongos are amazing live! This was my second show and it was just as awesome as the first that I saw on their last tour. Can’t wait to see them again!
We bought VIP tickets which included a private acoustic set beforehand, meet and greet and a bag of swag. It was worth every, single penny. KONGOS is an amazing band that everyone should see. This was our third time and they never disappoint.
I love this band! They put on an excellent show; their songs are great, and they are so entertaining! I think I love them as people, too. I wish them every success in life. What great music!
The concert was the best. The venue was small and so much more enjoyable than a huge stadium. I will definitely see them again when they return to Seattle.. what a great group of musicians👍
