The Regina Leader Post An accessible blend of jazz, house, drum 'n' bass, soul, spoken word, hip-ho, bebop, funk and fun.

Ottawa Xpress "Sekoya is a total performance package for the ass and soul." Schema (Vancouver) The band's debut dics captures some if it's live quality with throbing beats and improvised forays by it's members. " The Vancouver Sun |
