07.19.20

Co-hosted by Chris Kissel and Chuck Soo-Hoo, the twice-monthly dublab program Contact Wave enthusiastically celebrates the best experimental, avant-garde, psychedelic, and off-the-grid music crafted in L.A. and beyond.
This week’s episode featured a conversation with Nailah Hunter, the Los Angeles-based harpist and composer. Her recent releases include the fantasy-inspired instrumental EP Spells (Leaving Records) and the standalone single “Black Valhalla,” recorded in response to recent unrest and uprisings.
