David Layton - Guitarist:
Interesting, intricate, and original. Makes my own efforts as a percussionist (I slap the side and back of my acoustic guitar) seem pretty bloody useless!

Press
"Obi Kaye is one of the most eclectic musicians I've heard in recent months. His
compositions bring to mind those African tribal dances we imagine taking place around a
huge fire in a remote jungle. Obi's latest project, When The Dreamer Awakens, is a real
treat to the ears." ***
"While this music may not lend
itself to much support on a commercial music scene, it definitely has a place to live in the
hearts of those who enjoy music that stirs the soul."
