Mikaiah Lei 17 years old - Vocals/Guitar for "The Bots"
Waiting for Bad Brains to play at the Afro-Punk festival last weekend in Brooklyn, NYC I caught this young 2 person band I later learned was called “The Bots” on stage (thanks loyal reader). I caught the tail end of their show, but was really impressed so thought I’d put up a little clip of their performance.

Turns out the guys are brothers (17 and 13) and are 1/2 Chinese and 1/2 Afro-Caribbean and as you can see, play some pretty vicious music.
If you really want to hear them tear it up and play a pretty cool tune, check out their video for “I Like Your Style” on their website. I will not lie, I do like their style. They have a CD coming out on July 25th.
I have a feeling we’ll be hearing more from these guys for years to come so remember you heard it here first! Enjoy!
Me and my brother are 13 and 17.
The gorge was too fun
you are the so kind
one love
