About
KONGOS is a rock band of four brothers - John J, Jesse, Dylan and Daniel Kongos. Their music is driven by strong melodies, powerful arrangements, a high level of musicianship and insightful lyrics.
They grew up in London and South Africa and now write, record and perform in Phoenix, Arizona. With multi-million-seller British singer/songwriter John Kongos as their father, they have been surrounded by music, studios and different cultures all of their lives. John J and Jesse studied jazz at Arizona State University and have played in several jazz and fusion groups over the past few years (see Law Of Seven, the other side of KONGOS). All four have been vegetarian since birth and vegan for the last three years.
Their debut album was released Jan 16th, 2007 on iTunes worldwide. Written, produced and engineered by themselves, it demonstrates their wide range of influences culminating in the KONGOS sound. In May 2007 they were named Best Rock Band in Phoenix by the Phoenix New Times.
