Having attended London's Royal Academy of Music, the three eldest siblings, Sheku (cello), Isata (piano), and Braimah (violin), regularly played as a trio. They had already made a name for themselves by the time their younger siblings, Konya (violin/piano), Jeneba (cello/piano), Aminata (violin/piano), and Mariatu (cello/piano), were able to join them. The first time they appeared on-stage (except for Mariatu, who was still too young) was for the 2015 season of Britain's Got Talent. Similarly, Sheku, Isata, Braimah, Konya, and Jeneba played the BAFTA in 2018, but it wasn't until the following year that all seven would take to the stage together at the Royal Variety Performance in 2019. Their debut album, Carnival of the Animals, saw release in 2020. ~ Liam Martin, Rovi
