Blinky Bill
Blinky Bill, a key player in Kenya’s alternative music aims to build an audience of diverse sounds.
Blinky Bill is a key player in Kenya’s alternative music scene. He was a founder member of Just a Band, a group of dynamic young creatives known for genre-bending and playful music videos.
His sound is difficult to categorise and, as he tells DJ Edu in this episode, he draws inspiration from a very wide pool, and he loves music too much to jump on any particular trend.
The interview was recorded at The Alchemist, a music venue where Blinky Bill launched an alternative music night with the aim of giving a platform to musicians but also building an audience in Kenya for more diverse sounds.
