For the very first time on Asian Pop Nation, our ears were graced with a live performance by Lemes – an up-and-coming Indonesian student band based in Melbourne. Joining us in the studio was Deo, Julian, Theo, Rama, and Chelsea, who performed two wonderful Indonesian songs: 'Pandangan Pertama' and 'Cinta dan Rahasia'. 

We had the chance to talk to Lemes about their hopes, dreams, and goals as one of the only Indonesian student bands based in Melbourne. Acting as a bridge between cultures, Lemes aims to help Indonesian diaspora reconnect with their roots and spread Indonesian music to wider horizons. Keep on listening and let yourself be charmed by this energetic band!
