A craver of stranger flavors, Oakland native Cheflee fuses ambient, rock, jazz, and soul music into a stew of sonic delectables. With the help of an incredible band, Cheflee imprints upon the listener visions of a utopian future and an honest present.
Catch him in action at The Chapel next Friday, May 1st as he takes the stage before Shabazz Palaces!

Demo Room: An Unclean Wash
Cheflee and Muzae Sesay
An experiment in collaboration and process, a space for improvisation and play between Sesay and musician Cheflee.
Together, these rooms form a house of memory and movement. Domestic Demo gathers what has been built, loved, and lost, holding it up to the light one last time before letting it go. It is both a reflection and a reminder to stay curious, to honor community, and to keep searching for something new within familiar walls.
Domestic Dive

omni-instrumentalist, producer, conjurer — from collaborative work with toro y moi, saba and salami rose, to his own heavy, cosmic compositions — Imari lives and breathes music like few other folks here in our east bay ecosystem.
with his new album gestating, we’ve been cooking on a new format to introduce the material as it takes shape. on the 18th, he’ll debut the first single, “all i see” live with full band & visuals 🎞️
rounding out this family affair with live sets from dream team @e.artifact and @DRUUVY plus the great @muzaesesay and @alaitheguy holding down soundtrack duties 🐚

🌝Coming up Thursday March 20 at Beauty Supply Arts💫
Sharada Shashidhar is a Los Angeles based vocalist, composer and producer. Her soulful voice takes inspiration from jazz and Indian classical music, which influences her songwriting and productions. Shashidhar’s elaborate harmonies and vocal creativity come together in a new beat-orientated spiritual jazz. She has shared bills or collaborated with the likes of Carlos Niño, Pan Afrikan People’s Arkestra, and Zeroh among others. On Soft Echoes, released last year on Leaving Records, Shashidhar leads us on a journey through her mind, traversing its peaks and canyons in search of greater connection. We’re pleased to announce that Shashidhar will be joined by bassist @calebious
Filling out the bill are local legends @chefleee and @mejiwahn (spinning vinyl!)
Doors at 8:30, dm for address
