Tokunbo
by vibetypeRelease Tour 2026 TOKUNBO - The queen of quiet tones presents her new album in the Theaterstübchen Kassel. The award-winning singer-songwriter TOKUNBO, former frontwoman of the Acoustic Soul-Jazz-Combo Tok Tok Tok, comes to the Theaterstübchen with a brand new album. With her new work, TOKUNBO skillfully continues the story of Folk Noir and continues the album journey that she once began with the dark and beautiful album 'Queendom Come' and which culminated in the much-celebrated album 'Golden Days'.
Named in the same breath as Sheryl Crow, Stevie Nicks and the Grand Dame of Folk, Joan Baez, her predecessor album celebrated international success, 'Golden Days' was awarded the silver medal of the Global Music Awards and the Grand Prize of the John Lennon Songwriting Contest for the song 'Ray'. The album was presented on television in ARD Morgenmagazin, ARTE Journal and ARD Brisant.
Now TOKUNBO is opening a new musical chapter. With her unmistakable voice, poetic storytelling and elegant instrumentation, she once again creates a sound universe between folk, jazzy pop and warm-hearted country melancholy.
Live, the full magic of the song poet and storyteller par excellence unfolds in her multifaceted voice - sometimes delicate, then again earthy-dark - and her unique presence. Accompanied by her top-class band, Ulrich Rode (BAP) - guitars, Christian Flohr (Pure Desmond) - bass, Matthias Meusel (Roger Cicero) - drums and Anne de Wolff (BAP) - violin, TOKUNBO brings the timbres of her new album to the stage and invites you into her mysterious world of songs with imaginative arrangements.
