Dubbed as the “Acoustic Obscura Tour,” Imaad Wasif (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, lowercase, alaska!) announces a 2026 tour of the West Coast, doing what he does best - playing intimate venues and performing stripped down solo acoustic versions of his songs.
On this tour, he’ll explore music from all his solo albums and beyond, including a new EP ‘Demon’s Way.’ “I’m trying to reconnect to the embryonic pure state, outside of all the insanity of the world right now. This is the most vulnerable thing I can do in front of an audience. I’m leaning farther into the traditions of dark folk.”
Imaad Wasif is a singer-songwriter, guitarist, and composer known for his emotionally charged songs and mercurial sound. He’s released seven solo albums to date including 2026’s acclaimed “Superconsciousness.” With a history including collaborations with Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Karen O, Lou Barlow, fronting the L.A. underground slowcore band lowercase, and the psych-rock mavericks alaska! he
continues to push the boundaries of rock, folk, and experimental music.
Emily Kokal
Semi-native Eugenean Emily Kokal is a founding member and co-lead singer of Warpaint, the all-women indie music institution who’ve blazed a totally unique creative trail for 20 years. Emily’s angelic voice, artistic vision and theater-honed stage craft helped set the band apart from their contemporaries, and she’s now embarking on solo explorations which take her sensibilities to different landscapes and unexpected terrains. Producing music with new collaborators, writing songs for film and television, creating visual art, poetry and more, Emily is evolving what she brought to Warpaint into an expanded, individual path forward.
