INTERVIEW: Kwabs in Dubai

Hi Kwabs! How would you describe your music to someone who had never heard it before?
I guess music that throws back and throws forward…has something of the past and something of the future about it at the same time.We were surprised to hear that you studied Jazz. Is that where your musical passion comes from?
Not really…I studied music pretty intensely later on in my life but my first connection with music really came from singing as a child. I can’t really tell you how or why I started to sing. I just know it was my first way of expressing myself as a kid and I think it’s just stuck with me ever since. I’ll try out all sorts of genres of music while I’m still alive and open-eared! But singing is will always be where the passion comes from.We read that Walk was used as the soundtrack to FIFA 15 and the UK general election. Which are you more proud of?
Definitely that it’s on the FIFA soundtrack! I don’t really play computer games myself but I know lots of people who play FIFA and told me they heard the track on the game. That’s pretty cool really isn’t it?
