OKA

Embracing the future without losing sight of the past, Sunshine Coast festival mainstay OKA draws indigenous connection to place and country to create their signature feel-good Australian earth sound, an irresistible blend of influences spanning house, big beat, reggae-dub, Roots, Jazz and world music.

  Born from a relaxed street jam over 15 years ago, the well respected act continues to bring the joy, fluidity and simplicity of their positive music to a much larger, growing audience on a global stage, independently selling over 160,000 albums.   OKA have shared the stage alongside inspirational acts Arrested Development, Finnley Quay, Xavier Rudd, Kinnie Starr and Digging Roots to name a few and appeared on festival lineups throughout Australia, Asia & Nth America including Montreal Jazz (CAN), Winnipeg Folk (CAN), Earthdance (CA), Rainbow Serpent, Splendour in the Grass (AUS) Sydney Opera House (AUS) and many more.   A mashup of dance & downtempo electro beats marinated in the mystic spiritual traditions of the Dreamtime, OKA sends unsuspecting crowds into hypnotic frenzies, gaining them a strong reputation Worldwide.
