KALUA
A mix of modern rock with elements of reggae, punk, world music, and Latin roots, is the new perspective of music sung in Spanish called kalua.

Formed in 2007, Kalua began with the vision to become a premier band in contemporary Latin music worldwide.

Influenced by bands like Soda stereo, Mana, Caifanes, and Santana, kalua started to write original material with the objective of recording an album. The process that took over a year, started on September 2007 at Promise land studios in Austin, Texas, and ended with the release of Kalua's debut CD "La Novedad" on November 2008. Soon, fan support pushed Kalua to record a video for their single "Volvere", a song that has been broadcasted on TV shows and radios across the United States, Argentina and Venezuela.

Moved by their talent, music and passion, Kalua was chosen for two years in a row as winners of "Tu Ciudad, Tu Musica (08-09)" a nationwide battle of the bands judged by a professional panel sponsor by Burger King.

Kalua's energetic performances has also given them raging reviews, given them the opportunity to perform at some of the best music venues in the Texas; Austin, Houston, Laredo and San Antonio. Kalua has also performed in the 2008 and 2009 Pachanga Music Festival, which featured some of the region's best Latin rock groups as well as national and international acts. kalua has also been part of The Austin Pecan Street festival, the city of Austin concert series "Live from the Plaza", and Santanarama 2008, a tribute to Carlos Santana in which Kalua starred as the All-Star band.
