Hey Summer's here and the bannd has added JB's Summerzcool tune from his latest CD Buffett Hotel. Danbo sings lead.

Thanks to you our fans for giveing us a turbo boost of appreciation .

We were rocking the base area of Sunday River ski resort while Angela was busy capturing the magic in her lens.
Enjoy the new images!!!!

The man you see at our shows and concerts is Jimdad Kenny a great man with the lens and along with his wife Linda really good friends of the band.
Many of our web site pictures come from Jimdad!!!
He is a dedicated fan and Parrot Head extrordinaire.

We were digging for tunes in the water last November and found some Toes. We lookd in the sand and found a ass.So.... we now cover this laid back anthmn to doing nothin'

Weve brought Kenny Chesney up with us once again to help his career. Hell we even do his song: When the Sun Goes Down

They cant believe they missed doing it this long but when Roberto turned up the steroe DVD on his rockin' home theater masterpiece , Banandero sat shocked that this amazing tune had never been heard by any band member.

You Can Wear My Hat is a Latin rythmnic marvel.

"Its got to be that the phrasing is so difficult that no band has cover it, The song is downright sexy and it moves like a Accela train through the choruses and verses."says The Banandero. " Its the most sensual high speed tune weve heard."

Danbo and I will split the Verses. It will be a real challenge to play and sing it at the same time but that' sometimes what separates us from other bands.

The 2 Cocabanana legends have begun working together on a new song.
Just guess the rythmn?
Fast or slow
Latin or vanilla?

The new tunes of She's Going Away and Jumbalaya have hit the live airways and are already audience faves.

Sittin' in recently at the Post Office Pub and asked back often are DJ, a superb up and coming sax player ...younger than any of the groups instruments.... and Elayne Fikuki, who has some serious vocal chops!

Why did we add this song? Because no one else can sing it and we can.
Plus .........we and our audiences love it.!

The Cocabanana Band rocked Sunday River for the forth straight year

Cocomon will be showing off his substantial vocal chops on a new cover tune. You can Call Me Al.
The trop rock Simon song features hot rythmns and classic Banana harmonies

The Tres Bananas have been tropically rocking the fab Overtime Sorts bar in Beverly since before Christmas.
All the fresh made from scratch food is absolutely
delctible and priced right.
Sets star at 9:15 and end at 12:30.

In addition to the NEW original Island ,the Bananas have add Cheeseburger in Paradise. Maybe their version will change the song to Last Cheeseburger in Paradise!
Also the Tres Bananas have added "Chevy Van" by Sammy John.
Why, because they can.

The Bananas are putting the final touches on our latest song "Island Rendezvous" - a dance friendly diddy - for your happy feet!

Join us at our next show on October 27 in Grafton (see our Calendar Dates link for details) as well as future dates, and catch us in the act!

That's right Banana Fans, our 2007 series of outdoor summer concerts had both the Band Bananas and Fan Bananas hopping and shaking!

We all clung to the warm, tropical weather well into October, but it's time to say goodbye to a fun filled summer and look towards the next one, knowing it will be an even bigger party!

Thanks to all who joined in the festivities and we'll see you indoors until June rolls in again!

We are pleased to have received soooo much positive emotion from our audiences as we performed "Last Paradise" in our shows since early June.

We best get to the studio and record it as so many fans have asked for it! People from all over, especially the Islands of the Caribbean, have praised us for the recognition their islands receive in the song, along with acknowledgement for the concern over managed development and the preservation of natural habitats.

We hope folks like Kenny Chesney and Jimmy Buffett will join us in this marathon of enlightenment to save the beauty of the Islands!

Keep checking our Calendar Dates link so you can see us live and find out what all the hoopla is about!!

The Band is working hard on its arrangement of El Banandero's latest song "Last Paradise". This sword cuts with a razor sharp blade in both directions and there's just no let up in it's angst.
Down in the Caribbean they are taking some of the most beautiful spots on earth and building 20 million dollar townhouses on sand dunes and beaches with no respect for the fragility of the environment . Greed is the word.
I know development is inevitable, and so is this song.
The chorus lyric stymied me until Krisitna, totally tuned in to the feel and message, wrote the words I couldnt find.

Banandero and Coconut Joe were working up a new tune tonight after weekly rehearsal. Looks like it'll have a chorus sung in French
