The talented Ian Roberts and his Radio Kalahari Band that tours the breadth of our country (and Europe). No village where they all were will be the same. It’s a good thing. No, really. Ok except Pofadder, but we do not talk more about it.
Uncontrolled show clapping music that smells, tastes and sounds like the field, the air and the rhythm of a windmill in a dusty landscape. A cocktail of Rock & Roll, Ghoema, Latin, Jazz and Africana that kicks harder than Mampoer! RKO use Accordion, Violin, Penny flutes, Guitars, Bass, Drums, Mouth Organs and sometimes a Sitar.
The voices tell stories that will make you long for someone you don’t know.

Original in Afrikaans:
Die talentvolle Ian Roberts met sy Radio Kalahari Orkes wat toere doen oor die breedtes van ons land (en Europa). Geen dorpie waar hulle al was sal weer dieselfde wees nie. Dis ‘n goeie ding. Nee, regtig. Ok behalwe Pofadder, maar ons praat eerder nie daaroor nie.
Onbeheerstelike toonklap musiek wat ruik, proe en klink na die veld, die lug en die ritme van ‘n windpomp in ‘n stowwerige landskap. ‘n Mengelmoes van Rock& Roll, Ghoema, Latyns, Jazz en Afrikana wat harder skop as Mampoer jong! RKO gebruik Trekklavier, Viool, Pennyfluitjies, Kitare, Bas, Tromme, Mondfluitjies en soms ‘n Sitar.
Die stemme vertel stories wat mens laat verlang na iemand wat jy nie ken nie.
