Orange County’s newest rising duo, CAPAWAV, is here to shake up the scene with their debut self-titled EP—out now across all streaming platforms. TyMatts (Pittsburgh) and Dre Delamar (Anaheim) bring together a unique East meets West vibe that’s impossible to ignore. This 5-track collection is more than just music; it’s a snapshot of two artists in perfect sync, pushing boundaries and blending their diverse influences into something fresh.

The magic between TyMatts and Dre wasn’t something they planned—it just clicked. The two first crossed paths back in 2018 at a show, and immediately realized their creative chemistry was undeniable. From there, it wasn’t long before they were in the studio together, vibing out and shaping a sound that felt like a breath of fresh air in the West Coast rap scene. Fast forward to now, and CAPAWAV’s debut is a full-circle moment.

What makes CAPAWAV stand out isn’t just their chemistry—it’s the way they fuse their different worlds. TyMatts, originally from Pittsburgh, brought that East Coast grit when he made the move to California in 2016. Dre, a native of Anaheim, grew up steeped in West Coast culture, and together, they bring the best of both worlds into one explosive sound. The result? A refreshing mix of raw, heartfelt lyricism and beats that slap.

Before forming CAPAWAV, both TyMatts and Dre had already built their own solo buzz. TyMatts was making waves with underground releases, while Dre was landing placements on streaming giants like Paramount+ and WeTV. Together, they’ve shared stages with artists like Yung Pinch and continue to build a fanbase that’s all about that undeniable energy.

With their debut project and “55” making waves, CAPAWAV isn’t just here to stay—they’re here to make their mark. Keep an eye on this duo because they’re just getting started.
