Sister (3:49) Kafka's original style of rich Soul, Afro-Beat, Jazz and heavy Funk comes from years of playing on the downtown streets, jiving small crowded bars, and living the blues. Lately the band has been exploring the hidden realms of psychedelic Rock and Hip Hop. Musically they all share a prodigal competency for their instruments and an almost psychic ability to read each others minds when improvising. In fact, improvisation is what makes them such an exceptional band as each time you see them is a new and fresh experience. Sometimes performing as a 15 piece extravaganza but often as 4 or 7, Kafka can perform on any stage. As a 7 piece Kafka recently launched their debut self-titled album with a smashing Australian Tour. The album itself has been lovingly crafted and recorded by Misha Laurent with the added support and engineering skills from legendary Resin Dogs percussionist and producer Dave Atkins. It features all the roaring Afro-Funk traits of their live show plus some from their smoother side. | |
