This episode of Fresh Out The Box features The F16s, a Chennai based alternative band who describe themselves as 'a pop band disguised in a rock and roll outfit’. Catchy pop vocals with grooving bass lines, synthetic keys and some upbeat drums. ‘Its hard to articulate the identity of a soul but we know it’s there.’ they tell me. 

Their music romanticizes melancholia and takes inspiration from the mundane everyday life that reflects the city that conceived them. ‘Lyrically driven, the 'sound' of the band rests in an arc that also includes acts like LCD Soundsystem, Julian Casablancas and the Voidz and The Horrors; beat-driven yet innately melodic.’ 

The band is a group of five: Josh - Vocals/guitar, Abhinav - Guitar, Sashank - Bass, Harshan - Keyboard/MIDI, and Manu - Drums/Percussion.

Join them in conversation w/ Param (Tour Manager) as they talk about their new EP Is It Time to Eat the Rich Yet?
