In late February this year Moko, a 21 year old singer from London, burst onto the scene with her debut video ‘Summon the Strength.’

Paradoxically, you might say, she’s been going from strength to strength. Having performed her first show in early April, she now has two videos out and has been confirmed to play Glastonbury and Brainwave festivals later this year.
The new video ‘Hand on Heart’ is a surreal Luis Bunel style montage of Moko doing her idiosyncratic dance in a Caribbean Barbers.

Her music has an unmistakable 90’s feel, with striking vocals that echo Shara Nelson and Skin from Skunk Anansie set against Massive attack meets Major Lazor backing track. We love what we’ve heard so far and are eagerly looking looking forward to seeing how the music develops.
To see Moko live catch her at the second headline show at Electrowerkz on the 4th of July. Tickets can be purchased for FREE here.
