Dynamic Kiwi duo, Genre Fluid, fuse music and theatre into high-energy funk-rock anthems and improvised acts with their unique synergy on stage and in the studio; morphing style, sound and character into captivating experiences for all ages to groove and be moved.
The duo consists of Wellington-born vocalist and performance artist, Silk Satin Suede, and Nelson-born multi-instrumentalist and looping artist, Bosho. Their journey began in 2020 where they quickly found a synergy within improvised music in Bo’s jam room in Nelson, New Zealand. Max and Bo are both heavily inspired by the likes of Led Zeppelin, Talking Heads and Fat Freddy’s Drop, but all Genre Fluid songs are born with the channeling of one feeling and the passion of another; contributing to a multi-genre’d catalog of music.
Genre Fluid’s engaging theatrical street performances found them early local success, becoming well recognised for their creative musicality in live looping, improvisation, theatrics, humour, and their ability to adapt to all environments, making them an act well-loved by all ages. This led them to playing on festival stages and opening for legendary Kiwi artists such as Bic Runga, Julia Deans, Mako Road, The Narcs, and Albi & The Wolves.
On November 12, 2022 they independently released their debut single ‘Groova Meista’ - the gender defying musical wizard with the coolness of a rock and roll star and the weirdness of an unearthly flightless bird.
