Product Description On their self titled debut album, OFFWHITE has lovingly crafted 10 power love songs that are instantly memorable and broadly appealing. From the explosive frustration on songs like "Invisible", to the soulful anguish of "So Long", OFFWHITES diversity is the source of much influence in their songwriting. "We wanted to do something different with every song, otherwise you get bored", explains Ryan about their multi-dimensional sound. This variety is even hinted at in the bands name, (OFFWHITE is a nod to the Kalama brothers half Hawaiian/half Swiss-German ancestry, as well as the color of their very first guitars). OFFWHITEs debut album OFFWHITE is a record that was created with a spirit of "true art". The entire album, save a few additional vocal and instrumental parts here and there, was created in a live atmosphere. "We wanted it to sound just the way it would at one of our shows." said Kai about the live feel of the record. These songs are as real and honest as the people who wrote them. OFFWHITEs time to be heard is now. Lifelong fans of music, they are ready to show what they can bring to the music world. They plan to focus their strengths close to home in Southern California and grow outward across the country from there. Youve felt them coming, and now theyre here to bring every loveable thing about music back into the mainstream. About the Artist OFFWHITE is bringing their brand of Soul Rock straight from the broken heart of Southern California. OFFWHITEs music is a calming breath of air to those who miss songs about devotion and delight. OFFWHITE was founded in high school by the Kalama brothers, Kai (Vocals, Guitar) and Ryan (Vocals, Bass), who have sung together since they were children. They formed a keen sense of harmony and melody, which has become the heart of OFFWHITEs sound. Coming from a musical family, music was in their blood. Writing songs since 1996, the Kalama Brothers joined forces with Kent "The Professional" Graves in 2002, a seasoned and experienced drummer from the San Diego music scene. The addition of Mike Horvath on guitar, a former band mate of Kents, solidifies the OFFWHITE sound with his "no nonsense" rock attitude. The dynamics and power of Kents drumming, Mikes guitar ferocity combined with the Kalamas firm songwriting and vocals finally brought the real OFFWHITE sound to fruition. OFFWHITE shapes the old into the new. The energy and power of The Who, mixed with the tenderness and soulful vocals of Marvin Gaye. One can also hear the pop sensibility of Elvis Costello, along with the sheer on-stage madness of At-The-Drive-In. All these influences contribute to the unique sound of OFFWHITE. "Its fresh and familiar at the same time. Were making music weve always wanted to hear" says Kai.
