After more than a decade and 10+ releases on Drag City, Bitchin Bajas continue inventing and ascending to new peaks, as evident in the three slices of sound that coalesce to form the upcoming Isle Peaks release, out this week!
Ahead of that, Bajas have shared a killer live video of Isle Peaks standout “Ajami”, filmed at their Los Angeles show at Lodge Room back in February on miniDV tape by Shambling History. Visuals from longtime Bajas compatriot Nick Ciontea only add to the experience. Bitchin!
Bajas have also announced a new show at the legendary Chicago club smartbar, adding to an already packed autumn of both US and EU/UK dates. Isle Peaks is out August 28, 2026!
