He has performed all over the African continent and the world, studying and playing with celebrated musicians including Toumani Diabate, Youssou N'dour, Salif Keita, Angelique Kidjo, Oliver Mtukudzi, and Baaba Maal. Kinobe's latest CD Searching for Survival was recorded in Uganda with his band WAMU SPIRIT and released in spring 2013.
