Flea loves championing the music he's into on Instagram, and he gave some high praise for his latest spotlight Mei Semones.
"For the last couple of months I've been listening to this ep by Mei Semones @mei_semones called Kabutomushi," the Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist captioned a photo of the jazz-influenced J-pop artist. "it gets me floating around my hotel room, it's an absolutely beautiful record. She's an incredible musician, deep guitar player and singer. The music is deft, articulate, and carries a mysterious power. So many good riffs, melodies, and rhythms."
"This whole last leg of tour I listen to it most days. It gives me so much hope for the young people making music today!" he gushed. "Give it a listen. KABUTOMUSHI. MEI SEMONES."
