Kapakahi LIVE @ Maverick Saloon & Grill, Santa Maria, CA April 12, 2008

Take catchy pop hooks and hip-hop sensibilities, add a twist of reggae and some Latin beats, bend it together with some funk . . . it sounds like a recipe for confusion. In Hawaiian, theres a phrase for this: Kapakahi, or twisted, bent, and confused. What better word is there to describe a band that takes all the above influences and fuses them together into something so booty-shakin' good it doesn't matter how you define it?





Kapakahi came together in April of 2005 when five musicians came together in a garage somewhere in the Mission district of San Francisco. Bringing together five different musical and geographical backgrounds, they eventually formed their unique sound. Now a four-piece act, Kapakahi have come a long way from their garage days, playing top-notch venues all over the Bay area and beyond. One year after that first session in the Mission comes the national release of Kapakahi's appropriately titled debut, Twisted, Bent & Confused, 13 tracks of mind-blowing and irresistibly danceable grooves.
