A virtuoso musician, producer, and multi-instrumentalist, he is known for soulful, cross- cultural music rooted in Ghanaian tradition. His original releases, including Ahwenepa, Bolgatanga Bicycle, and Aseda, reflect his wide range as a composer and bandleader. His track record is unmatched. He has performed in professional bands since adolescence, and Kwame has spent a lifetime on stage and in studios, constantly evolving as an artist. His musical outfits, The Kwarmy Band, Kwashibu Area Band, and Ohia Bɛyɛ Ya (OBY) Band are personal projects that channel his creative identity and signature sound. He has also served as musical director and producer for legendary artists like Kojo Antwi and Pat Thomas, further cementing his influence across generations of Ghanaian music.
