Kainalu

Taking the time from his busy schedule, we got the incredible opportunity to speak with Trent Prall, who is much better known as Kainalu. He released one of our favorite records of 2022, Ginseng Hourglass, so please take the time to hear our full conversation. In the realm of psychedelic funk, there are few artists as captivating and innovative as Kainalu, the brainchild of independent multi-instrumentalist and producer Trent Prall. With his sophomore album, "Ginseng Hourglass," Kainalu solidifies his position as a rising star, blending modern psychedelia with the timeless allure of classic Motown influences. Prall's Japanese-Hawaiian heritage, where "Kainalu" translates to the ebb and flow of ocean waves, provides a profound backdrop for the project's exploration of impermanence, life's transience, and the constant shifting of time.
