The French multi-instrumentalist FKJ plays Bangkok this November 27

The French multi-instrumentalist, singer and producer FKJ brings his acclaimed live show back to Asia this year, announcing a seven-city tour in support of his forthcoming third studio album, Tyber, and the genre-defying artist plays Bangkok, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Seoul, Taipei and Tokyo.

If you've never seen him work, picture this. One man on a stage crowded with saxophones, keys and guitars, plus a loop pedal on the floor by his feet. He plays a phrase, records it, loops it back, then layers the next instrument on top until the room hears a full band. There's no backing track and no other musicians. He keeps a mic close so you catch him breathing between takes.

Tyber’s set to release on September 11, his first full-length since V I N C E N T, and he writes and records it across London, Los Angeles, Paris, Brazil and Mexico. It's a record made by someone in the middle of big changes, threading groove-led compositions, jazz instrumentals, sample-heavy experiments and psychedelic textures through what stands as his most expansive work yet. Lead single 'Soulmates' offers a warm way in, and the guest list tells you plenty: Lucy Park, Baby Rose, Bas, Eryn Allen Kane and Labrinth all appear across the 12-song tracklist, which he's already teased with 'Changes Rising'.

Over the years FKJ has earned a devoted following through a fusion of jazz, soul, funk, hip-hop, rock, classical and electronic music. More than 2.5 million people subscribe to his YouTube channel and he's played Coachella, Red Rocks and London's Hammersmith Apollo, often finishing a set drenched in sweat with the crowd on their feet.
