One of the highlights of 2015 was Jambinai’s gig at the Rich Mix as part of the K-Music festival. So we’ll definitely be going to their 2016 appearance at the Elephant and Castle.

Creating some of the most innovative sounds in East Asia’s underground scene, Jambinai are an award- winning post-rock act that was formed in Seoul, South Korea in 2009. The group consists of Ilwoo Lee (guitar and piri), Bomi Kim (haegum), and Eun Youg Sim (geomungo). Ushering Korean traditional music into the 21st century, Jambinai’s stunning sonic compositions mix mesmerizing sounds from the past with elements of folk, metal, and electronic music.
The album A Hermitage will be their second full-length release, which follows up Différance (2012) and their self-titled EP Jambinai (2010). The group has been wowing audiences at a number of international festivals throughout 2014 and 2015 including SXSW (US), Roskilde festival (DK), Exit festival (SR), Primavera (ES), Glastonbury (UK) and Paleo festival (CH). With A Hermitage due to be released on Bella Union and an elaborate, international tour, 2016 is poised to be Jambinai’s best year so far.
