FableFABLE emerged on the scene in 2019 with the haunting single ‘Beware,‘ and since then, he has been carving out his unique path within the alternative music scene in Aotearoa New Zealand. Notable releases such as ‘Karakia’ and ‘Let Me In’ gained significant traction on student radio, leading to a nomination for Favourite Single of the Year at the Student Radio Network (SRN) in 2021.

With an organic recording process taking place at music ally Akshay Raju-Morrison’s house for ‘Please!’, FABLE has collaborated closely with friends such as Akshay and Cam Cranston, whilst also drawing inspiration from Steve Lacy’s Gemini Rights project.

Speaking about the track, FABLE says, “I wanted the track to give off a similar feeling to the chill and happiness kava brings. It’s meant to be groovy and hypnotic, almost disorientating. The lyrics cut through the lulling riffs, offering a juxtaposition and keeping the listener from being swept away by the groove.”

The vibes for this track are Friday after mahi, drained but happy, sinking some kava and just chilling.”
