Kan'Nal is an authentic Rock & Roll band. Formed through natural evolution across 4 countries, 6 years, and 10's of thousands of miles traveled. The sound is rock & roll infused with a primal tribal core. Tribal Psychedelic Rock.
The core 5 members of Kan'Nal came together over a 2 year period between 2002 - 2004. All were on solo backpacking missions though Mexico and Central America when their paths crossed. First Lead Singer/Songwriter TZOL met TIERRO (lead guitarist) in a small town in Guatemala. Cut off from the outside world, San Marco, Atitlan was the perfect spot for the two to work on their musical direction. The 1st Cd was conceived and later that year delivered in a studio in Toronto Canada.
Tzol and Tierro returned to that same town in Guatemala almost 1 year later to the day and met Rodolfo (BASS) and Teresita (Performance act/vocals) soon to be core members of the growing tribe. Later that year the 4 headed to the states for a small tour and recruited Rodolfo's life time friend Gilly Gonzalez from San Antonio, TX for drums. Aaron Jerad joined up in the Yucatan Mexico as a didgeridoo player/percussionist.
The band was set... Traveling by foot, hitching, car, jeep, van, bus and plane, the group has now played over 500 concerts since their inception. Highlighted by performances in the ancient Mayan city of Tikal in Guatemala, river side in the jungle palace of Palenque Mexico and high profile rock festivals across America including SXSW, High Sierra, Wakarusa, Earthdance, Burning Man and many more.
Their talent, drive and potential was recognized by Colorado producer Dik Darnell (John Denver, Earth, Wind and Fire, Caribou records) in 2005, and his contributions helped push Kan'Nal up to the next level. New CDs were made, and bigger and better tours were taken on. That same year Akayate (performance artist, dancer and costume designer) joined the crew, and the bands stage presence was now at seven performers.
Today in 2007 the band Kan'Nal has a hungry passionate fan base across 15 states. Over 10,000 CD's sold, a 6000 plus true fan mailing list, and supporters from all walks of life. The group is about to launch a new CD, a DVD, and a summer tour to back both. ALL 100% independent. 100% authentic. 100% true to creativity. 100% passionate for music. 100% passionate for life.
The Band
Tzol: Vocals, lyrics, and rhythm guitar.
Tzol's voice ranges from angelic to primal, powerfully expressing the vision and inspiration he finds from a deep connection to the earth and nature.
Tierro: Lead guitars.
Blending Spanish gypsy, native trance and psychedelic leads, Tierro is a world traveler and an artist of sound.
Rodolfo: Bass.
Captain of Fun and king of the groove. If you're not dancing, then Rodo's going to have to use his super powers on you.
Teresita: Performance.
Part gypsy dancer and part fire dragon, Teresita lights the stage with her ceremony, poetic flows and performance art.
Gilly: Drums and percussion.
Somewhere in-between Animal and Zakir Hussain, Gilly drives an intense tribal beat embellished with intricate middle eastern flavor.
Aaron: Didgeridoo, percussion, and samples.
Offers foundational rhythm and deep presence carried in the hypnotic sound of the didge.
Akayate: Performance and design.
A seeker of balance in both movement and design, Akayate is subtle and precise, a ninja of dance theater.
