Bedouine
Bedouine, the musical project of Azniv Korkejian, brings her intimate, gently unfolding folk music to Johnny Brenda’s. Her album *Neon Summer Skin* reflects on childhood, family, and the feeling of safety remembered from long summer days, drawing on vivid and personal experiences after visiting her family in Saudi Arabia. The music expands her fingerpicked guitar foundation into emotionally powerful arrangements, pairing timeless melodies with a newly substantial resonance.
The bill also includes Other Delights, a Los Angeles band formed in 2024 by drummer and producer Robin MacMillan, singer-songwriter Adron, bassist Aaron Olson, and keyboardist Andrew Dorsett. Their music blends lounge, 1960s European film soundtracks, bubblegum psychedelia, and Tropicália, with soaring vocals, harmonica, sparkling keyboard parts, and playful, theatrical arrangements.
