West London's Aquila's Kiss are undeniably a band with soul. Their music spans a myriad of styles, blending rock, convincingly, through to various strains of R&B and pop. Aquila's Kiss greatest gift though is that they make records that are melodic and stylish. Just one listen to the passionate blaze of "Burn" will convince you. Detroit born singer, Oby Oputa offers a gut-wretchingly personal vocal style that combines all the feel, groove and sensibilities of the blues. The music, however, is powered by big hooks, indelible riffs and meticulously constructed harmonies.
Aquila's Kiss supply tunes that translate into great live performances. Oputa's vocals are powerful and raw, introspective and spiritual. The music is emotionally in touch with what makes the heart sing. It's earnest and anthemic. Aquila's Kiss create an identity forged on diversity, familiar sounds taken straight out of the '60s and '70s at once feel polished and creatively mixed to modern effect. Their fiery connection with crowds, intriguing musicianship and fine songwriting is utterly exciting. Aquila's Kiss is that rare self-styled band that sounds as big and expansive as they intended.
