Kouchera
The Button Factory Stage

Kouchera brings a high-energy, soul-stirring live show to The Button Factory Stage on Friday, February 6.

Kouchera (/ˈkoo-CHAIR-uh/) is a high-energy ensemble delivering electrifying performances filled with emotional depth and boundless fun. Seamlessly fusing Rhythm, Haitian Konpa, and Soul, Kouchera creates an unforgettable musical experience that leaves audiences inspired and dancing.

The name kou.che.ra (/ˈkoo-CHAIR-uh/) is a portmanteau — a seamless blend of the Haitian Creole and Hindi words for “cousin.” That sense of connection runs through every performance, as the band blends the richness of Soul, the emotive storytelling of Rhythm & Blues, and the infectious rhythms of Haitian Konpa to bring audiences and their loved ones to their feet.

With a lineup that can expand from a tight duo to a full eight-piece band, Kouchera tailors each performance to fit the vibe, whether it’s an intimate room or a festival-style stage.

@koucheramusic 

This is a night built for movement, joy, and shared energy — don’t miss it.

Tickets are $10 online and $15 at the door. taken in WSCA Radio by @wsca_radio
