KNOWER are a searing hot music group from Los Angeles spearheading a new musical movement. The LA duo represent the best of drummer-producer Louis Cole and singer Genevieve Artadi. Currently touring their fourth album 'Life' [2016], they opened for The Red Hot Chili Peppers in 2017 and continue to take over with their hard-hitting funk, cool chords, deep melodies and funky vocals into an incredibly imaginative off-world experience. 

An entirely DIY act since formation in 2010, KNOWER’s viral videos, discography and live visual experience has become an international internet phenomena. Clocking millions of views, their live "band house sesh" hit over 3.5 million views in a week. Videos “F*** The Make Up Skip The Shower” feature on GTA V’s Fly Lo FM, to “THE GOVT. KNOWS” experience that will stick with you forever. Known for their live show, they take their infectious energy to another level. 

Their all-star five-piece for their Australian tour includes expat Rai Thistlethwayte (Thirsty Merc) on keys, Sam Wilkes (bass), Jacob Mann (keys), Louis Cole (drums/vox) and Genevieve Artadi’s (vox). Michael Jackson’s legendary producer Quincy Jones, an early KNOWER fan, best sums up why you can’t miss them: “KNOWER will be leavin’ y’all on your knees, beggin’ for more.”
