Artist description Cabahug is driven by the songwriting talents of the band's namesake, Roderick Cabahug. While only Roderick and the band's drummer, Francis D'Angelo, are permanent members, Cabahug invites accomplished and energetic musicians to occassionally fill the bass, keyboard and lead guitar roles during live performances. The end result is a collection of cohesive songs that are driven from the same raw sound that Cabahug fans have come to depend on. In live performances, fill-in musicians have brought the uniquely fresh sounds of D'Angelo's drumming and Cabahug's vocals/rhythm guitar to new heights. Each performance is different from the next, however the same energy and excitement for the music keep the band sounding fresh and interested in the music and the crowd. These most recent tracks are from Cabahug's new ep, self-titled "Cabahug" and demonstrate the band's versatility and grasp of a new music collaboration, overlapping layers and styles most absent in today's bland music.
