Debut Heavenly Sweetness album from guitarist Kepa, who takes you on a stripped-down, soulful guitar journey where American folk meets Saharan blues, and breezy Hawaiian flavours. Back when he was a pro skater, he gave everything to the board. Today, he gives that same intensity to the stage, delivering hypnotic cine-concerts where motion, sound, and image blur into one. The only falls left now are the ringing final chords of his guitar - not just an instrument, but an extension of his body.

Fingerpicking is his native tongue. So much so that Kepa no longer sings - he lets the strings speak. Percussive, alive, essential. This music isn't about performance, it's about living: a personal quest, a way to reach others by first going inward. Moving against the current without fighting the wind. Finding breath, essence, and remembering we're all drifting on a spinning planet, surrounded by forces bigger than us.

Released in late 2025, the EP Hotline Service opened the door, offering a wide-open, spiritual escape. With Soul Wash Services - produced by Timber Timbre - Kepa goes further. Warmer, deeper, more focused. The album feels like sunlight on asphalt, a long drive with the windows down, time slowing just enough to let something real surface.

A kindred spirit to Hermanos Gutierrez, Kepa plays the role of a modern, pagan preacher - guiding us through a dusty, golden road movie that unfolds entirely inside the listener. His music doesn't shout; it cleans.

Kepa does it all: writes, plays, films, edits, mixes. Music becomes image, image becomes music. Nothing is separate, on record or on stage. There's no excess, no showboating - just an open invitation to slow down, go deeper, aim higher.
