Question 4

What exactly sets The Koi apart from other folk or alternative bands out there?

Accepted Answer

Well, first off, they ain't just copy-pasting the usual folk stuff, y'know? It's their roots in Manipur that give their music this distinct flavor. It’s that Manipuri connection. That mix of diverse and, as they say, 'contradictory influences' held together by sincerity? You just don't find that everywhere. Their live performances, they have, I've heard, got a captivating stage presence. Plus, the fact that they started out doing amateur recordings with just a laptop and a mic? It shows they're real, raw, and not afraid to keep it authentic. It's that authenticity that really grabs you. Want to book some other instrument player too? Check out Instrumentalist category.

Question 5

Can The Koi play covers, or do they only do their original music?
