Join the new look KRok Recommends and let Kelly introduce you to the best independent, emerging & new music from Asia. The podcast where music and perspectives collide! Join us, a bubbly American music lover and a sarcastic Brit with a quick wit, as we dive into the world of The Rose and other Korean and Asian rock bands. One of us is a professional musician, and the other’s the ultimate fan—and sometimes we’ll agree, sometimes we’ll wildly disagree. But what’s guaranteed is a passionate, hilarious, and unfiltered conversation about the music that unites us and the bands that inspire us.
