Paddlebots represents the collective vision and music stylings of Kortez Buckner and Haruki Hakoyama. Born out of a series of YouTube covers, the duo's intricate and unique arranging style and high-energy performance quickly gained viral popularity. Inspired by the support of their growing fan base, Paddlebots was created to provide a creative outlet for Kortez and Haruki's original work. In partnership with their friends Ethan, Andy, Dominic, Mike, and Zak, Paddlebots has curated a unique sound marked by head-bobbing grooves, soulful vocals, soaring solos, and righteous horns that has been coined #ProgressiveSoulPop, and they cannot wait to share their passion with audiences everywhere.
