The White Shoes & The Couples Company, celebrated as one of the "best indie pop band to call Jakarta home" by Allmusic.com will play alongside local band, Khottal and French band SayCet to transport the audience into a different dimension of poetic and mesmerizing soundscapes and melodies.

Formed in 2002, The White Shoes & The Couples company blends 1960’s Burt Bacharach-inspired melodies with winsome indie pop to create a truly unique sound that bring us back to the 1970’s or even to the 1930’s, with charming, distinct melodies and orchestration. Singing in both English and Indonesian, they have been named "one of the Top 25 bands on MySpace" by Rolling Stone, featured in Times Magazine and praised by Pitchfork. http://www.myspace.com/whiteshoesandthecouplescompany

The concert will also showcase two supporting acts including Franco-Lao outfit SayCet, performing for the first time in Malaysia. Warmly praised by LesInrocks and Trax, the trio plays an unforgettable blend of experimental pop and electronica, matched with bewitching video projections.

Khottal (pronunciation: ˈkä-təl ) consists of 12 people, who are like a mixed bag of pills. This 11-piece outfit skips between punk, unpolished pop, indie rock, jangly and fey melodies that will make your laughter sounds a little different to the norm

About Pekan Frinjan

Pekan Frinjan is an initiative by a fringe group with the intention to instill the art culture in our society. It is done by presenting various art activities and cultures to the mass., especially by using mass page and streets. By doing it “pop” style, it is with big hope that the mass are willing to accept intellectualism based contents. This is crucial in shaping a country with civilized environment that doesn’t concentrate solely on economic growth.

About Frinjan

Frinjan is a loose collective artists and connoisseurs of art and culture, and the word 'Frinjan' taken from the English word, 'fringe'. Our objective is to organize art and cultural activities which are semi-commercial by injecting literary, cultural and social development of society. Frinjan employs art as medium, message, and motivation to call attention to important socio- political issues affecting our daily lives, often collaborating with local Non Government Organizations, art community and educational institutions.
