Keira Witherkay is a South African born "solo world music and jazz guitarist / percussionist and composer"

She has a style that allows her to play bass lines, chords, melody and a full percussion arrangement all simultaneously without the use of backtracks or loops .

This polyphonic approach to playing the guitar allows her to create a full sound live from just one performer, although she often broadens the musical palate by performing with a vocalist and other percussionists

this vibrant mix of guitar and percussion with highly infectious musical grooves draws from many "world " influences ,flamenco, Latin , Cuban, African, Morrocan, Celtic, Indian, ragtime, blues and jazz
