Dabda 다브다


Dabda is a 4-piece band from South Korea consisting of vocal/guitarist Kim Ji-Ae, guitarist Lee Joseph, drummer Lee Seung-Hyun, and bassist Noh Keo-Hyun.

They are best known for expressing dream-like strolls within their music with their poetic lyrics and unique play-style capable of expanding and variegating their own sounds, best shown in their live performances. Even though they incorporate vocals within their songs, their main sound is driven by sparkly yet often cinematic guitar heavy interplays and complex drumming dynamics usually reminiscent of post-rock and math-rock sounds.

They officially marked their start with the 2016 EP [Island of Each] and are currently very active with the release of their 1st full length album [But, All The Shining Things Are] in 2020 while expressing themselves as ‘Pastel Psychedelic.’
