Kokomo is a long-standing Kiwi blues & roots group, based in New Zealand's sunny Bay of Plenty.
The band has toured all over and released 15 albums and a full-length concert film.
This is also home for cult duo The Self-Righteous Brothers and other side-projects from Kokomo members
"Wry, satirical, apocalyptic ... rooted in acoustic traditions, though not bound by them"      Nick Bollinger, NZ Listener
“Kokomo are always worth tuning in for... something more than a 'blues band'.”     Graham Reid / Elsewhere

Sprinting swiftly in every direction at once, this is the long-delayed companion-piece to Workhorse. Three songs appear on both albums but in radically different versions. On FUTURA Kokomo's classic sound meets the grooves of house, techno and electronica. This is the video for the album's 'title track'...

William Dart profiled Kokomo on Radio New Zealand's New Horizons
"It's taken the Tauranga band Kokomo 30 years, 15 albums, 3 divorces, 5 children, one heart attack and numerous tours to make the great album they've been promising. William Dart checks out the band's new Workhorse in the context of their impressive career."
