Their songs, mostly about falling in love or dealing with heartbreak, have gained a growing following, thanks to their heartfelt lyrics and delightful performances. In addition to regularly playing gigs and festivals, the duo actively connects with fans through live sessions on social media, where they share stories and personally say hello to their followers.

Tamago began as a high school cover band playing at school events, but soon decided to create their own music as a six-piece band. They released their debut single, “Walls and Empty Rooms,” in 2017, right from their hometown of South Tangerang.

Their music blends dreamy melodies with crisp guitars and heartfelt lyrics, evoking the same warm, fuzzy tones you’d expect from your favorite indie pop bands.

By 2018, Tamago’s songs began reaching audiences beyond their inner circle and even gaining international listeners through digital streaming platforms. This growing attention solidified their desire to become a fully-fledged band.

Fast forward to 2024, the bond and commitment each member shares remains unwavering, with one EP and 13 singles already in their repertoire.

The Nerverackers blend creativity and versatility in their music; ranging from bouncy synth-pop and guitar-centric 2010s pop rock to contemplative, lullaby-like folk tunes. Their debut single “Modbury” in 2020 captured the attention of the local indie scene, fueling anticipation for their live shows. After a brief period of dormancy, The Nerverackers are back, poised to make a greater mark with thoughtful songwriting and innovative production.
