Ta-ku just completed his first ever North American headlining tour featuring Wafia in Los Angeles, CA. The run included a dozen dates, and also featured Masego and HWLS as support. It will also showcase the duo’s elaborate new set with a full band and artful original visuals from frequent collaborator, Sam Price.

We caught up with the down-tempo soul master Ta-ku and singer Wafia before their sold out show at the Vogue during the “Songs to Make Up To” tour. They let us in on the music that inspires and influenced them!

Ta-Ku on Records In My Life references the following albums:
1. Blind Faith – Blind Faith
2. Chingy – One Call Away
3. Bon Hiver – For Emma, Forever
4. Sufjan Stevens – COme on Bring the Illinoise
5. Stereolab – Dots and Loops
