Okonkuluku all ye villagers!

It's finally time to announce our brand new record - literally! That's right, "Rendezvous in Okonkuluku" (RIO) is at the press and will be released on 5/23/07 (Yup, a Wednesday) at our old standby, the Milky Way in Jamaica Plain. Joining us will be the middle-eastern sounds of ZilZALA (zilzala.com) and the "Triple-S" exotic WAITIKI Wahine dancers, Shakti, Sarah, and Samarra.

The Wednesday CD Release will be followed up with a 12" vinyl release (limited edition print, including a bonus track and different artwork). Eventually, the full album will be on iTunes as well. You can PRE-ORDER the CD now ($15 coconuts) online via PayPal/Credit Card too.

TAMPA TOUR COVERAGE:
Tampa , FL was a blast last week. We played a great show at Skipper's Smokehouse which was off the hook - a great "down by the bayou" kinda hang. The next day, we participated in the awesome Tropical Heatwave festival put on by WMNF radio - a great community station with lots of local listener support. The southern hospitality was great (mahalo to Randy Wynne and Lindalu especially)! The entire trip was topped off with a killer feast at the newly-named "Rusty Key" tiki bar in Pablus' backyard. Delish kau-kau accompanied a great grog selection of Concubines, Planet of the Apes, and Scorpions - all served in Pablus' collection of approved containers (see photos). TikiCentral in the house!
