The Amazing Kappa
So...... you must have heard about them???
The
Cavern Pub
every Saturday.......about 5 o'clock? The place is rammed to the brim with people in awe of the
talent that this Liverpool band has to offer.
One of the tightest bands you will see, with the most electrifying frontman this fine City has to offer. The
audience barely has time to catch their breath as Kappa rampages through a blistering set, virtually non-stop. The
most interesting of cover versions blended with rocky and tuneful self compositions which go down so well with the
crowd. You only have to watch the people in the crowd mouth the words to realise that they are hooked.
Paul Kappa has always received stupendous reviews:
“…..and the guitarist, [Paul Kappa],
applies a topping of terse rocka-billy and spidery riffage of the most breath-taking speed and virtuosity via a gleaming
Gretsch White Falcon, occasionally spinning into a spring- heeled dance routine as he does so. It may well be unique,
this music…..[his] songs are spiced with images of the lazy Texan sun warming the lemon grass, haunting affairs in
rented rooms and trembling overtures to women called Claudia, and [ his] dark western swing takes sudden detours through
cowpoke, hop and full-tilt acid rock dementia.”

“…. There’s a great adaptation of
Motorhead’s heavy metal masterpiece Ace of Spades, with the added bonus of charismatic singer [Paul Kappa] (according
to several besotted women) [KAPPA] are definitely a band to watch – both literally, and figuratively.”
Chris
Marlowe, - Country Music International.
“….and his own material, when he gets that
guitar going, is stamped with the word original – and boy do they rock! It’s a great band, he’s an inventive
guitarist, he’s got the looks and the style to make an impression…To be honest, I don’t think he knows how good
the band are! Never mind, Paul Kappa has all that it takes, and that includes the “need” to perform…. As for a
first gig, I haven’t seen many better, an original rock band with great songs, a front man who really can sing
and has probably found what he’s looking for with that cross-over country/ powerhouse rock that makes this band stand
out from the crowd, watch this space….”
