Biography
From the language of the Arawaks, Jamaica's original inhabitants; COYABA: a place of ease and rest, with infinite feasting and dancing, a kind of heaven. We are Coyaba!!! An original, innovative, roots reggae band based in Bloomington, Indiana. Our mission is to spread a positive message of social conscience through good vibes and driving rhythms. Our sound is unique, we combine the best aspects of all reggae music into a powerful sound composed of a pulsating melodic bass line, dusty organ, skankin' guitar, solid beats, majestic horns, tribal flutes, soothing vocals, and live dub effects. All to make you dance!
