Dabda

🤸‍♀️ Kim Ji-Ae / Lee Seung-Hyun 🤸‍♀️ 🌕 Noh Keo-Hyun / Park Jung-Woong 🌕 Dabda is a four-piece indie rock band based in Seoul, South Korea. Dabda are a math rock-inspired band that specializes in creating beautiful chaos. Seunghyun Lee (Drums) and Jiae Kim (Vox/Guitar), who met at their university band club, headed to Seoul with the unified thought of starting a band together. In 2016, with the joining of Joseph Lee (Guitar), they finally landed on a brand new lineup and released their debut EP, Island Of Each. A year later, Dabda released their first full-length album, But, All The Shining Things Are. Unfortunately, the pandemic hit the world by surprise at the time of the album’s release which led to most of the activities surrounding the album being cancelled. Despite facing a great misfortune, in 2021, Dabda released their collaborative single “Jungle Gym” with Toe’s Takashi Kashikura. It was around this time that Keohyun Noh (Bass) joined and the current lineup was completed. In early 2022, Dabda started working on new songs using a jam the band had been using as a show opener served as a catalyst to begin experimenting. They developed the songs by sketching ideas from jamming together to create songs that can run wild during big festival stages while exploring sounds new to the band. These five new songs on Yonder tell the story of the longing of the band and the youth of their generation to overcome the hopelessness they face.
