The Compozers is a British-Ghanaian music band formed in London in 2013.

Career

Initially, they were friends, unaware that they would eventually form a musical ensemble. They were born and raised in the same area in North London. The Compozers began as friends playing music together in their local church before officially forming as a band in 2013. They have since become highly sought-after collaborators for major artists such as pioneer BET Hiphop Best International Flow award winner, Sarkodie, Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy, Stormzy, Tiwa Savage, Ed Sheeran, Central Cee, and many others, performing at iconic venues worldwide (such as the Royal Albert Hall, Roundhouse, Brixton O2 Academy, Madison Square Garden, Barclays Center) and earning a reputation as pioneers in modern Afro-fusion and live music.
