The F16s

For over a decade, through several iterations and releases, Chennai-based four-piece The F16s have been steadily refining their vision. From their 2013 debut Kaleidoscope, 2014’s Nobody’s Gonna Wait recorded at Rubber Tracks Studio in Brooklyn, 2016’s full-length breakthrough Triggerpunkte, through to 2019’s ode to companionship WKND FRNDS, and 2021’s searing ‘Is It Time to Eat the Rich, Yet?’, this vision has expanded in maturity and gravity — as thirty million Spotify streams and coverage in Pitchfork, Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan and Variety suggest. A fixture on the festival circuit, the band played the inaugural Lollapalooza Mumbai in 2023 alongside personal heroes The Strokes, Bandlands with Amyl & the Sniffers and The War on Drugs, and Baybeats Singapore with Otoboke Beaver. The sold-out Rock n Roll is Dead Tour India cements the band’s place as a once-in-a-lifetime live powerhouse. Selective in process, calculated in execution, and blessed with the solitude of the hills, The F16s are pleased to present their 2nd full-length album “All Dogs Go To Heaven”. Ten tracks aided by personal growth and kinship about the uncomplicated way people can exist alongside each other. It's the sound of a band still moving, still shedding, still becoming.
