B35’s sound never chooses sides and is better for it. Rooted in post-rock and experimental leanings, the group folds Thai sensibilities through shifting structures, ambient stretches and moments of restraint that land harder than any obvious climax. This live session, recorded with Nora Jazz from Southern Thailand at Studio Lam, adds another layer entirely. Traditional rhythms don’t feel borrowed or dressed up for effect. They sit naturally alongside distorted guitars and patient builds, like old stories retold in a new accent. Watching the session feels intimate, as if you’ve been invited to sit cross-legged on the studio floor rather than spectate. Nothing strains for grandeur. The music breathes, hesitates, then moves forward again. It’s thoughtful without becoming heavy, experimental without shutting people out.
January 15. B400 at the door. Studio Lam, 10pm
