LA-based James Supercave combine psych aesthetics with a pop sensibility creating a groove-hugging sound that’s dark but inviting. Hailing from Echo Park, the trio of Joaquin Pastor, Patrick Logothetti and Andrés Villalobos blend a range of influences and sounds - at once groovy and rhythmic, other times soulful and freaky. After dropping a debut EP, 2015’s The Afternoon, Supercave shared the stage with bands like Warpaint, Chet Faker, Jungle and Future Islands, before returning to studio.
Supercave released their debut LP Better Strange in 2016. Singles 'The Right Thing,' 'Burn,' and title track 'Better Strange' represent a fully focused realization of the complex sound the band hinted at in the past. Picked up by NPR and Sirius XM radio play, the band’s live 5-piece live performance has been seen on a sold-out US tour with Wilde Belle, as well as extensive West Coast headlining dates, notably including a recent top-billed Los Angeles festival play alongside Grammy-winning duo Brasstracks.
'Somewhere between the second and third minute of Khushi’s “Freedom Falls,” what has been a fragile affair emerges from its cocoon. Kalim Patel’s full vocal range is revealed, along with an ear for ambitious, orchestral arrangements. It’s a departure from his work as part of London trio Strong Asian Mothers, and part of a coming album mixed by James Blake.' -Pigeons & Planes
