Biography

When life is forced to face a howling gale that could unhinge even the strongest person in the room, one could either admit defeat or rise to the occasion. For musicians Kamga and Chevrina, who have endured the highs and lows of the Indonesian music scene, it’s the latter that led to the formation of Hondo. What started as an imaginary french bulldog that exists in their own realm of thoughts has evolved into a sonorous entity that symbolizes Kamga and Chevrina’s adulthood aspirations and dreams. After a series of trials and tribulations that caused all sorts of dissonance within their lives, a track that has been kept in the vault for so long emerged and kicked off Hondo’s journey that has, so far, garnered a certain degree of relatability amongst music fans. Aptly named Thirty, the track unveils the duo’s deepest regrets, resonating with everyone that goes through the pains of growing up. Through Thirty, the previously rudderless pathway for Kamga and Chevrina has gotten a new awakening after all the tirades that they both overcame in their trio project with Tata in Dekat. Through the music of Hondo, the duo aims to convey the message of hope, regardless of the disdain that may arise, in a safespace that surmounts all obstacles especially in this day and age when social media often perturbs one’s idea of self worth.
