Farai Rebirth

A fascinating, edgy glimpse into a world that is sometimes rarely seen – these are diverse stories from life in a diverse city, delivered by London’s Farai who channels the ghosts of post-punk in a style that is also electrifyingly modern, pulling in elements of electro, hip-hop and spoken word in a stark, unblinking fashion.

A collaborative project between Farai Bukowski-Bouquet and musician and producer TONE, ‘Rebirth’ documents a process of recovery. It weaves together South East London landmarks, the bare-bones ethos of post-punk and the experience of being part of the African diaspora, continuing the themes of their 2017 debut EP, ‘Kisswell’. The result is Farai’s alternative vision of pop; distinctive and many-sided at once, poised between punk directness and flourishes of soulful warmth.
