K-BOYZ MUSIC BAND BIO
The K-Boyz band was formed in early 2010 by Solomon Haile, Aman Tefera and Young K. Solomon had been writing lyrics when he was still living in Eritrea and was looking for a way to bring his songs to a larger audience. The band initially just played other bands' songs, but by the end of 2010 they were performing Solomon's original songs. At that stage, the original band added several more members who were also song writers, bought instruments and focused on original live music performances.
The K-Boyz -- short for Kunama Boys, reflecting their cultural heritage -- are the first and only Kunama band in the Sioux Falls area. The band wants to expose a larger audience to the sounds of the traditional Kunama music. Theirlong-term goal is to preserve these sounds through the use of digital media for generations to come.
