Wali Essentials

Indonesia's Wali makes it look effortless, but the band's success is the result of years of skilled practice. Vocalist Faank, drummer Tomi, keyboardist Ovie and guitarist Apoy have leveraged their wholesome image and straight-ahead pop-rock sound to become one of the country's most in-demand acts. When their first album, Orang Bilang, was released in 2008, the simplicity and power of singles like “Dik” placed the band firmly on the charts—with the album Cari Jodoh, Wali integrated gentle reggae rhythms, grinding guitars and synth-rich arrangements into an irresistible fusion.
