Iska Dhaaf is a two-person band that formed in Seattle, Washington around mid-2012. The band’s name, ‘Iska Dhaaf’, is a Somali translation for the phrase, "let it go", and members include Nathan Quiroga (lead-vocals and guitar) and Benjamin Verdoes (drums, percussion, and keys). The group is uniquely known for playing a multitude of instruments despite their small size. Prior to the formation of the group, both members had been active musicians in other bands.
In July 2012, the group performed their first show at Home Skillet Fest in Sitka, Alaska. However, both later admitted that it "was probably a little too early for the band". [1] Since then, the group has released two singles, and plans to release their first album on March 11, 2014 under their current label, Brick Lane Records [2].
