Pacifika
Pacifika is a Canadian world music band formed in Vancouver, British Columbia by high school friends Silvana Kane (vocals) and Adam Popowitz (guitar) in 2004 and joined by Toby Peter (bass & drums) in 2006. According to Kane, who sings in Spanish, English and French, Pacifika “is simply the Latin way of saying ‘peaceful’ in the feminine, except that we changed the 'c' to a 'k'.” The group has released 4 albums; their independent debut ''Unveiled'' (2004), and three with Six Degrees Records: ''Asunción'' (2008), ''Supermagique'' (2010) and ''Amor Planeta'' (2014).

==Background==
Kane and Popowitz met while attending Catholic High School in Burnaby, BC and formed the band ''Big Bottom Swing.'' Kane left the band to join the Canadian pop trio West End Girls, signed a record deal with A&M Records and had a top 10 Canadian hit with ''Not Like Kissing You'' in 1991. Popowitz helped form the Vancouver hard-rock band Mollies Revenge, signed a record deal with Atlantic Records via David Foster's imprint 143 Records and released the Rick Parashar produced ''Every Dirty Word'' in 1997. Popowitz and Mollies Revenge frontwoman Yvette Narlock then formed Yve Adam and released the Carmen Rizzo produced ''Fiction'' (143/Atlantic) in 2000. Peter formed the fusion band Salvador Dream, signed a record deal with Warner and released ''UR'' in 1994. In 2004, K-os enlisted Peter for the touring band on his ''Joyful Rebellion'' World Tour. In the same year, Kane and Popowitz re-connected, then wrote and released ''Unveiled''. After seeing a live performance in 2006, Peter approached Kane and Popowitz about joining the band. Now a trio, and with funding secured with a FACTOR album loan, they wrote and recorded ''Asunción'' which they then successfully shopped to Six Degrees Records.
