Description

OOKLAH THE MOC was formed in 1997 playing a mix of roots reggae and hardcore. Through the years and several lineup changes, Ooklah became a strictly roots dub reggae band and reached its present 8-person lineup in 2000. Instrumentation consists of Ryan 'Jah Gumby' Murakami on bass, John 'Barrucus' Davis on drums, Asher Philippart on lead, dub, and rhythm guitars, Gary Nakano on trumpet and flugelhorn, Tony Bush on trombone, and the vocal trio of Jimbo 'Ras Bird' LaPierre, 'Sista Micky' Huihui, and Nick 'Kali' Navales on lead and background vocal mixes.

In 2001, OOKLAH THE MOC released their debut album, ITES MASSIVE, a 16-song original roots dub reggae conglomeration. Ites Massive was released under Ghetto Cirus Records of Hawai`i and is currently distributed straight from the band at Ghetto Circus Records. Additionally, Ooklah the Moc has tracks on the Quiet Storm Records compilation disks, ROOTS MUSIC I, II, and III.

Currently, Ooklah the Moc is creating their sophomore album, to be completed and released in Fall 2003.
