Dave Okumu lives in the fabric of contemporary UK music. As a prolific songwriter, producer, performer and musical director, his contributions have bolstered music by the likes of Jessie Ware, Adele, Arlo Parks and the late Tony Allen. His wispy voice, sincere demeanour and guitar chops stewarded his Mercury-nominated band the Invisible through three shapeshifting albums, and finally anchored a solo debut, Knopperz, in 2021.
