Mythos

Kan'Nal is an authentic Rock and Roll band. Formed through natural evolution across 4 countries, 6 years, and 10’s of thousands of miles traveled. The sound is rock and roll infused with a primal tribal core. Tribal Psychedelic Rock.

The core 5 members of Kan'nal came together over a 2 year period between 2002 - 2004. All were on solo backpacking missions though Mexico and Central America when their paths crossed. First Lead Singer/songwriter TZOL met TIERRO ( lead guitarist ) in a small town in Guatemala. Cut off from the outside world, SAN MARCOS, Atitlan was the perfect spot for the two to work on their musical direction. The 1st Cd was conceived and later that year delivered in a studio in Toronto Canada.

Tzol and Tierro returned to that same town in Guatemala almost 1 year later to the day and met Rodolofo ( BASS ) and Teresita ( Performance act/vocals). Soon to be core members of the growing tribe. Later that year the 4 headed to the states for a small tour and recruited Rodolfo's life time friend Gilly Gonzalez from San Antonio, TX for drums. Arron Jerard was picked up in the Yucatan Mexico as a didgeridoo player/percussionist.

The band was set ... Traveling by foot, hitching, car, jeep, van, bus, and plane the group has now played over 500 concerts since their inception. Highlighted by performances in the ancient Mayan city of Tikal in Guatemala, river side in the jungle palace of Palenque Mexico, and high profile rock festivals across America including Wakarussa, High Sierra, Earthdance, Burning Man and many more.

Their talent, drive and potential was recognized by Coloroado producer Dik Darnell ( John Denver, Earth, Wind and Fire, Cariboo records ) in 2005 and his contributions helped push Kan’Nal up to the next level. New CDs were made, and bigger and better tours were taken on. That same year Akayata, (performance artists and costume designer) was recruited and the bands stage presence was now at seven performers.

Today in 2007 the band Kan'Nal has a hungry passionate fan base across 15 states. Over 10,000 CD’s sold, a 6000 plus true fan mailing list, and supporters of all walks of life. The group is about to launch a new CD, a DVD, and a summer tour to back both.
