White Shoes & The Couples Company are a pop sextet from Jakarta influenced by 1970s Indonesian movie soundtracks, retro disco beats, ‘30s jazz and everything in between. The band first formed in 2002 at Jakarta Art Institute by colleagues-turned-lovers Rio Farabi (Rio) and Aprilia Apsari (Sari).
White Shoes have created a gentle, hypnotizing and gorgeous sound that has made them stand out among the global musical masses. Their debut album was released in 2005 with Jakartan label Aksara Records, and distributed by Universal Music Indonesia in Indonesia and has sold over 15,000 copies.
