Hawaiian 4 piece Underwater Radar is on the verge of changing the face of current music genres. Blending influences from jazz, afro-beat, R&B, reggae and world music, they describe what they are bringing to audiences as “the music of the spheres, the music of our souls”. Searing rhythms, soulful vocals, and edgy melodies help to construct their sound like fluid water bending down the river, or like a wave crashing on the shores of O’ahu! Dance, celebrate, ruminate, and get your groove on!
