KAABOO DEL MAR featured Band is The Shelters

September 1, 2016

  We are excited to announce The Shelters as our Featured KAABOO Festival Band. With the release of their debut album they have been garnering much deserved high praise. We have become addicted to their music when we first saw them open up for The Struts earlier this year. Their sound brings out a nostalgic hint of classic rock dipped in 90’s alternative flair and with a modern twist. We really love their organic yet infectious style. You can check out their music video for their track, Rebel Heart here: To get you revved up for their performance at KAABOO Festival, check out some photos by our Rockin Ryan:   Make sure to visit social media sites for the latest news. We look forward to this incredible festival and hope you have your passes already.
