Wonderland

Energetic acoustic guitars, ukuleles, banjos, and percussion power this uptempo acoustic rock album that bounces and swaggers. Happy, positive and fun music. Features strong songwriting with big arrangements. Cary "CKP" Kanno cut his teeth early with bands in Chicago Illinois. Gritty and unabashedly midwest, the Abstract Giants (hip hop/ funk band), and Doko Benjo (rock/ funk band) were locally successful and served as a springboard to foster his talents as a multi-instrumentalist songwriter.
