Bambara stormed the KEXP studio on October 8, 2025, with a live take on “Holy Bones.” Fronted by Reid Bateh (vocals) and backed by Blaze Bateh (drums), William Brookshire (bass, vocals), Sammy Zalta (guitar, keys, samples) and Lilah Larson (guitar, vocals), the NYC outfit laid down an intense performance for host Troy Nelson. Kevin Suggs handled audio engineering alongside guest mixer Alec Rosenberg, while Julian Martlew mastered the track.
