ABOUT QWALIA
New London based quartet Qwalia, led by drummer Yusuf Ahmed, offers a plethora of influences whilst remaining resolutely itself. Assembled from musicians who play with David Byrne, Joy Crookes, Nubiyan Twist, Frank Ocean, Jordan Rakei, Sampha, Cat Stevens and more; Yusuf is joined by Tal Janes on guitars and vocals, Ben Reed on bass and keyboardist Joseph Costi.
Qwalia’s debut album ‘Sound And Reason’ was released by Alberts Favourites in March 2023, with vinyl sold out almost immediately. The singles have been played by DJs such as Gilles Peterson, Mary Anne-Hobbs and Gideon Coe on BBC Radio 6 amongst others. The name Qwalia stems from the same sounding word “qualia”, a philosophy of mind with the property of being an ineffable experience.
Qwalia’s music is an instinctive aural expression of how things seemed in the moment of creation. The band members are Pakistani, Italian, Venezuelan, Jewish and English. A reflection of the fact that cultural categories are infinite; Qwalia’s music unconsciously explores identity, exposing what this can mean. Or perhaps that it doesn’t mean anything at all. At times contemplative and spacious, and at other times dense and demanding body movement; herein ‘Sound And Reason’ lies a wide range of musical aesthetics culminating psychedelic jazz, funk, folk, ambient and avant-pop into an engrossing, experimental sound.
