The Band Lab officially ushered in the festive season by performing at the media night of the Gembiria Balik Kampung Buffet at the Old Court House. Set against the stunning heritage backdrop of one of Kuching’s most iconic landmarks, the performance added a layer of musical elegance to the launch of this highly anticipated Ramadan culinary experience.

To complement the nostalgic "Balik Kampung" theme, The Band Lab presented a unique string quartet accompanied by a cajon. This percussive addition brought a rhythmic, contemporary pulse to the classical string arrangements, creating a lively yet sophisticated atmosphere for diners breaking their fast.

The ensemble performed a dedicated set of six Malay classics, focusing on beloved seasonal and Raya favorites. The repertoire included the festive staples "Selamat Hari Raya", "Ramadhan Tiba", and the high-energy crowd favourite, "Alamak Raya Lagi!" The fusion of traditional melodies with a modern string-and-percussion twist resonated deeply with the audience, bridging the gap between heritage and modern entertainment.
