Veteran musician, singer and songwriter, Maka, began his musical journey
in 1985, after the profound affect reggae music and its spiritual
message had on him. For twenty years Maka has been performing in
reggae bands in California and Hawaii. In that time he has shared
crucial experiences with reggae musicians, reggae music listeners
and Bredrin and Sistren of Rastafari. Countless club performances.
Many road trips and outer island gigs. Sharing the stage with
a long list of international reggae artists and backing some as well.
Maka is Livicated to his mission as a singer, as player of instrument
and as a messenger. Through years of reasoning with Elders of
Ras Tafari, he realized it was truly a divine force guiding his
path, as he strives to live his life as his Elders, with humility
and love.
Maka is the founding and now former keyboardist/vocalist of Hawaii's
top reggae band, THC. After many years of directing all aspects of the
music business, he sets his Sight on a personal musical path, stepping
from the keyboards and up to the microphone as a Canscious Roots Singer.
Like all the great roots reggae artists, Maka is equally serious about
his faith, Livity, and music.
On Oahu he performed weekly at his hometown club in Kailua (Red Stripe Reggae Night at Boardriders), hosting the longest running reggae night, and is backed by the I Sight Band, an ensemble of all-stars from many top local reggae bands.
Maka continues to promote "I Sight" with performances in Hawaii and California. After 14 amazing years in Hawaii, he returned to California. He continues his music and Jah Works and is performing at select venues around California alongside the talented Jah Glory Band.
Experience, wisdom and an unwavering sense of purpose are the
strength and the spirit driving the music and message. The music that
he loves and performs is a Blessed Music, born in Jamaica and brought to
the four corners of the Earth. Iniversal Music in Praises of the Most High,
Jah Rastafari. HIM Haile Selassie I. Righteousness through Livity,
Love and Jah Music.
