KAVA KAVA are based in Huddersfield - that's in Yorkshire, UK originally starting out as a 4 piece live psychedelic funk outfit with heavy George Clinton influences. Core members are Pat as Singer, Keys and a bit of Trumpet; Jason on Bass and Electronica, Matt on Guitars and Mick on Drums. We started out on the underground festival/party scene, had a few independent record deals out there. The NME has described us as "gorgeous new psychedelic funk" and we had a No 1 in their CLUB GUIDE CHART (ah thanks guys) These days we've expanded into a six/seven piece (Ian and Atholl brass section alert !!!) and have been punting our self produced album MAUI out on the CHOCOLATE FIREGUARD label. Had a bit of radio and press here and there. Recently a feature in BILLBOARD MAGAZINE (check out the blog) In the States 300 college radio stations have been playing our latest CD MAUI (check it out!) and spins include Nic Harcourt's show 'MORNING BECOMES ECLECTIC' on KCRW and Sat Bisla's PASSPORT APPROVED radio show .... our music is featured in new cult US Showtime TV series WEEDS featuring Mary Louise Parker as a pot dealer. Mary Louise has won a Golden Globe for her excellent performance. 'Don't Stop The Music' was featured heavily in the very first episode. Other TV/film slots include LA RIDING CLUB and BOYS AND GIRLS GUIDE TO GETTING DOWN
