Leenalchi
Leenalchi (Korean: 이날치) is a South Korean pansori pop band formed in 2019.
The band has a unique lineup, with two female and one male traditional Korean singers, two bassists and a drummer. The traditional singers are graduates of Seoul National University's traditional music department. Bassist Jang Young-gyu scored the films "The Wailing" (2016) and "Train to Busan" (2016) and played bass for SsingSsing. Fellow bassist Jeong Jung-yeop previously played bass for Kiha and the Faces. Drummer Lee Chul-hee was also drummer for SsingSsing. The band is named after Lee Nal-chi, a pansori master and jultagi performer of the 1880s. All members participate in coming up with a song in a rhythmic way, "like a Wikipedia article written by many contributors". The band members met during a 2018 performance of "Dragon King" at the Asia Culture Center in Gwangju.
Their first album was influenced by the pansori play Sugungga. The band released its track "Tiger is Coming" as a non-fungible token. Leenalchi were featured in the 2022 Netflix documentary mini-series Midnight Asia: Eat. Dance. Dream., performing in an episode about Seoul's nightlife.
The band has achieved considerable success, appearing in the Korea Tourism Organization "Feel the Rhythm of Korea" video series promoting the cities of Seoul, Busan, Jeonju, Mokpo, Andong, Gangneung, and Incheon and winning three prizes at the Korean Music Awards in 2021 for Musician of the Year, Best Modern Rock Song, and Best Jazz & Crossover Album. Judges called it the "sexiest album of 2020". The band frequently collaborates with Ambiguous Dance Company.
