KitsapSun (dot) com adds...

A local band proves that Kitsap kids can be rising stars in the Puget
Sound rock world

The next band to make the leap from Kitsap favorite to rock-star status
just might be Hafacat, a quintet named after the perversely preserved
remains of a friend's dead feline.

If only it were that easy to describe the band's music.

What to call Hafacat? A punk band? Not really. Its members were weaned on
the early punk and raging heavy metal music of the late 1970s. But their
sound is neither punk nor heavy metal.

Melodic hard rock, then? Perhaps. Some of their songs sound like a 1970s
Blondie with a bit more brawn.

Chick band? "That's the worst," sighs Renee Phares, Hafacat's lead singer.

'Tis true, four of the five members of Hafacat are of the female
persuasion, while the fifth is a guy, Ben Hooker, drummer.

He says it's more apt to think of Hafacat as "like every '70s rock hero"
rolled into one band.

Their influences include AC-DC, the Descendents, the Go-Go's, New Bomb
Turks "and a lot of bands that people who read the Bremerton Sun have
never heard of,"Hooker says.

Hafacat's members listen to and support Kitsap bands because they are
local and know how tough it is to break into the Seattle music scene.

Hooker, 25, grew up in Bremerton and lives in Port Orchard. Phares, 25,
is from Alberta but moved to Kitsap County 21 years ago and also lives in
Port Orchard.

Guitarist Mandy Reed, 27, is a West Sound native and Bremerton resident.
Bass player Heather Madden, 23, grew up in Tacoma and now lives in
Bremerton.

Only new addition Rachel Flotard, a 26-year-old guitarist from New Jersey,
lacks a Kitsap connection. Flotard lives in Seattle and commutes to Port
Orchard several times a week for rehearsals and gigs.

The three original members are mothers - Phares and Madden were pregnant
when Hafacat was conceived in January 1995. The band gave birth to their
first CD just over a year ago. And now, in 1999, Hafacat is poised for
greater success.

Negotiations with Seattle indie-rock record labels and gigs at high-
profile clubs like the Crocodile Cafe are symptomatic of that.

"The goal isn't to be rock stars," says Reed. "But we'd like to see how
far we can take it. If it doesn't take us anywhere, so be it."

Madden adds,"We just want to improve until someone says we can't anymore."

They've come a long way since Reed and her girlfriends, knowing no
instruments, decided they wanted to start a rock band in 1994.

After only a couple of low-key shows, everyone quit except Reed. She met
Madden through a friend who taught bass guitar. The pair, plus Eileen
Bogle, formed Hafacat.

But they needed a singer.

Phares, living with Madden at the time, offered,"I'll scream for you."
She took out an old poem and sang Hafacat's first song.

The name comes courtesy of Paul Browning from local band David Koresh
Choir. Browning told band members about his family cat that had been run
over by a car. Allegedly, his mother saved half of the cat and kept it in
a bucket of formaldehyde. Thus, half a cat.

The band took to the moni-ker but changed the spelling slightly.

Hafacat is "short, quick and smashed together," Phares explains. That
might be a way to describe the band's early efforts.

They had some help along the way. Guitarist Mike Moen, who wrote one
Hafacat track, "Two Tons of Fury," lent a hand and "basically taught us
how to have band practice," Reed says.

In the beginning, the band had little stage presence. "Because if we
moved, we'd screw up," Reed says.

They move quite a bit now.

Hooker becomes a sweaty mess as he thrashes at the drums. Phares winds and
weaves her way across the stage. Reed stands ready for battle at her
guitar, while Madden and Flotard rock out on the other side of the stage.

Hooker, previously a drummer with Right Things, joined two years ago this
month after Bogle got married and left the band. Flotard joined as a
second guitarist last November.

Though Hafacat had won local "battles of the bands"in 1997 and 1998 -
even becoming a finalist for a slot in the '97 Warped Tour - band members
say they had started to lose focus before adding Flotard last fall. They
all agree her ambition has spurred them to new musical heights.

It's tough to break out from the pack in Puget Sound's diverse and
talented musical scene. Having Flotard in Seattle to pound the pavement
has helped, band members say.

"There are so many freaking bands in Seattle, it's so hard," says Reed.
"A lot of people have given up."

Many Kitsap bands don't get the chance to play the popular Seattle clubs
and wind up becoming nothing more than local favorites. These bands often
break up after a long-term lack of appreciation.

"You get burnt out playing in Bremerton," Hooker says.

But these days, Hafacat shows more signs of burning up the stage than
burning out.
