Make room for Maktub (pronounced “mock-tube”), a five-guy band from Seattle that’s rockin’ it out and rakin’ it in…the fans, that is.

Never heard of them? Sample their soulful tunes this weekend! They’ll be at Tulagi on Saturday, April 27 and the 15th St. Tavern on Sunday.

Who the heck are they? They’re music-makers, man! Maktub mixes the graceful qualities of jazz with hearty alternative beats, combining their range of talents into easily digestible tracks in Kronos. Your toes will be a-tappin’ and your hands a-swayin’ to the moving melodies and emotional vocals by lead singer Reggie Watts.

Whether it’s dance tunes you’re in the mood for, or just a touch of soul for studying, Maktub delivers a sample platter of fun and fresh tracks for your listening pleasure.

See them this weekend at Tulagi or the 15th St. Tavern for a taste of something musically different.
