IT’s been thrilling to see a host of bands from Southeast Asia make their way up into China - a deluge of exciting new sounds. Heavyweight promoters SoundFact invite LEPYUTIN - a six-piece band from Bangkok- this week. Rooted in jazz yet seamlessly blending rock, alternative, and psychedelic influences to create a truly unique and hard-to-define avant-garde sound, the band evokes everyone from King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard to Black Midi - and even opened for Black Country, New Road on their home turf. One of those bands where everything - from the fuzzy guitars to the in-sync vocals - is so deftly assembled - crafted with soul, groovy rhythms, and charged melodies. Opening for the band are Shanghai’s own psychedelic explorers Khunathi, whose full-blooded psychedelia will surely keep the vibes vigorous and audacious in their pursuit of nirvana.
