Radio Kalahari Orkes
About
RKO se musiek strek van 'n diep gewortelde plek, wat Ghoema, Latyns en Afrikana-musiek aanneem en ook enigiets anders wat langs die grondpad te vinde is. Die woorde is egter ferm op die hede.
Op akoestiese toerusting wat amper so oud is as hul leuse, speel die klank se geluid uit met ou kitare, pennyfluitjies, mondfluitjies,bas en gazoos.
RKO is op 20 April 2017 vereer met 'n FAK - Prestige-toekenning vir die uitstekende bevordering van Suid-Afrikaanse musiek.
RKO's music extends from a deeply rooted place, taking on Ghoema, Latin and Africana music, including anything else found along the gravel road. However, the lyrics are firm on the present.
With acoustic equipment almost as old as their motto, their sound includes guitars, harmonica, bass, kazoo and an old penny whistle.
On April 20, 2017, RKO was honoured with the FAK - Prestige Award for their excellent promotion of South African folk music.
