Hiatus Kaiyote: Nakamarra
A friend of mine recently turned me on to Hiatus Kaiyote, and I’m glad she did. The Australian neo-soul quartet has a buttery sound that’s fronted by singer/guitarist Nai Palm and supported by the fresh grooves of bassist Paul Bender.
Here’s a great clip of the band playing through their song “Nakamarra” live on WNYC’s Soundcheck. I’ve played it a dozen times and I bet you will, too.
Earrings!
She has a nice strong voice. Cool relaxed vibe and groove. Good stuff!
Epic band!
Awesome bass line!
Guys – this video is OK. But below video is a bloody masterpiece:

These guys are the coolest. They’re making some of the most unique music out there right now, and I can’t wait to see what the new album is going to sound like. 5/4 can’t come soon enough!
