PRESS QUOTES:
"It's easy to see why's there's a real buzz about this band and if the musical wind changes in the right direction that buzz could well become something much, much louder" - The Talk....
"They were a burst of fresh, loud, edgy funkrock with spunky, almost Craig Nicholls-like vocals and strong guitar and bass. Add some great, haunting harmonies, bluesy guitar solos and you've got an ace sound. They were good to watch too - a very tight band with exciting, yet not too over the top stage presence" - The Sandman....
"With the right luck and a few more songs, York could once again have a top-40 band" - Vanguard Online....
"I checked out your music. Good playing... Open it up and let fly. Keep me in the loop." - Zane Lowe (Radio 1/MTV2)....
"Definitely worth checking out" - Leeds Music Scene.
"They have a confident swagger in their stride and look every bit the band most likely to... Kanuba use the dual vocals to contrast and complement each other in equal measures, to produce moments of brutal conflict and beautiful harmony... The songs are a dynamic mix of rock, funk, pop and punk and produce such variation that it is almost impossible to liken them to any one band. The set is delivered with heart stopping emotion and absorbing stage presence throughout... Kanuba may be disappointed to learn that if they continue to burn this brightly they may find themselves heading up their own scene. My only regret of the evening is that with this kind of performance next time the queue will surely be even longer!" - BBC North Yorkshire/The Talk

Influences: We could literally name hundreds of bands between us so basically, if it has loud guitars, huge riffs, pounding drums, funky bass and powerful vocals then it has been, and continues to be, an influence on our sound.
Sounds Like: "retro rock and pop-punk with harmonised dual vox and 4/4 drumming... Smackings of really early TERRORVISION and Bootsy Collins bass vibes clash beautifully with JAMIRAQUAI vocal tones amid the more funk rock moments with further hints of 9 BELOW ZERO, NERVE RACK, THE MUSIC and the CHILI PEPPERS" ....
