SUN May 4th
Formed at the beginning of the post-pandemic social boom, Memphis psychedelic rock outfit Jombi are students of music and lifelong friends further bonded by a drive to create a sound tha tis uniquely theirs.
The band is renowned for their influences of contrasting genres such as modern psychedelia, 70s progressive/experimental rock, folk rock-driven Americana, and second wave midwestern emo. It’s never quite known where Jombi is taking you during a song or an album, and that’s exactly what they want.
In April 2021, founding members Bry Hart and CalebCrouch introduced two of their fellow musicians Sam Wallace and Auden Brummer to their weekly garage jam sessions, simply held to keep their chops up during the social drought.

In short work it seemed they were playing local Memphis stages every weekend. Since then, their expansive, experimental, and ever-developing sound has garnered a dedicated following in the southeast region. They’ve shared the stage with established modern jam and psychedelic artists such as BALTHVS, Neal Francis, The Weeks, and Futurebirds.
Their latest album, 2023’s Out to Pasture, is their first studio effort since their 2022 debut...Jombi Presents and the follow up Silent I Will Stay EP.Out to Pasture is a notable step forward in the quartet’s dynamic range and technical tendencies, and shows them experimenting with exploratory and noisy soundscapes, airy vocal harmonies, and lush Americana instrumentation.
