Live Concert: Elovaters, Kash’d Out & Coyote Island Bands

Deuterman Productions Brings The Elovaters’ “Staring at the Sun Tour” to South Florida, Joined by Kash’d Out & Coyote Island

South Florida’s reggae-rock scene is gearing up for one of the season’s most anticipated live shows as Deuterman Productions presents The Elovaters’ “Staring at the Sun Tour”, with powerhouse support from Kash’d Out and Coyote Island. Fans of modern roots, surf-soaked melodies, and upbeat genre-bending rhythms will find plenty to celebrate as three standout acts converge for a night of feel-good, high-energy music.

The Elovaters: A National Heavyweight in the Progressive Roots Movement

Since breaking into the national spotlight with their #1 Billboard Reggae album Defy Gravity in 2018, The Elovaters have quickly become a household name in the American reggae-rock world. Regularly mentioned alongside fan favorites like Sublime, Slightly Stoopid, G. Love, and Stick Figure, the Boston-bred band has built a dedicated following through infectious melodies, laid-back grooves, and an unmistakable coastal sound.

Their rise has been nothing short of impressive:

• Artist of the Year and Live Act of the Year at the 2022 New England Music Awards

• Reggae/Ska Artist of the Year at the Boston Music Awards

• Music featured on CBS’s Hawaii Five-O

• Their hometown anthem “Boston” showcased during the 2018 Red Sox World Series Parade

With heavy spins on SiriusXM channels like No Shoes Radio, Margaritaville, and The Spectrum, The Elovaters continue touring across North America and the Pacific Islands in support of their 2023 album Endless Summer, bringing their signature sun-drenched sound to stages nationwide.

Kash’d Out: Florida’s Own Reggae-Rock Road Warriors

Hailing from Orlando, Kash’d Out has become one of Florida’s most respected—and hardest-working—bands in the reggae-rock circuit. Known for clever lyricism, crisp guitar lines, and a dynamic live presence, the group first made waves when their debut album The Hookup climbed the Billboard Reggae Charts after touring with Pepper and Less Than Jake.

Since then, the band has been relentlessly touring, sharing stages with genre leaders such as Iration, Collie Buddz, The Expendables, and others, while also securing slots at top festivals like Reggae Rise Up, California Roots, Dry Diggings, and One Love. Their latest album, Butter, showcases a band unafraid to evolve—pushing their sound while staying true to their reggae-rock roots.

Expect high energy, polished musicianship, and a loyal Florida fan base that always shows up strong.

Coyote Island: A Genre-Blending Sound Bath for the Soul

Rounding out the lineup is Coyote Island—the musical project of Maine-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Mike O’Hehir. Known for crafting lush, rhythmic, globally influenced soundscapes, Coyote Island blends folk, reggae, world music, pop, cumbia, and psychedelia into something both soothing and uplifting.

His music is often described as a kind of sonic medicine—equal parts groove, atmosphere, and intention. O’Hehir’s live performances invite listeners into a space where movement, emotion, and connection take center stage.

With three genre-pushing acts and the reputation of Deuterman Productions behind it, the “Staring at the Sun Tour” stop promises to be one of the brightest nights on the South Florida music calendar. From surf-roots melodies to Florida-homegrown reggae to globally inspired rhythms, this is a show tailor-made for fans who love their music warm, vibrant, and full of soul.
