Da High Cookout feat. JBabe, Rye+Oorvaksh
Possessed by the desire to art-direct one’s own sobbing self portrait, to make sure his mascara smears in the most perfectly dishevelled way. But who cares what’s “real” when the music delivers a truth you can see.
Inspired by the likes of artistes such as Frank Ocean, Julian Casablancas, Homeshake, and Poolside multi-instrumentalist, producer, composer, guitarist and vocalist of The F16s, Josh Fernandez decided to pursue his solo dream project on the side, thus creating JBABE. He describes his music as lo-fi, indie-pop mixed with rhythm and blues.
When: October 24; 1:30pm onwards
Where: High Spirits, Koregaon Park
