Karabas Barabas formed in late 2015 when Cern ripped a hole in space time. A portal opened in Jacksonville Florida from where Andrew, Josh, and Phranque emerged. They were discovered by Jacques Lemaire who taught them everything they know.

They used these skills to work with Greg Norman, Grammy winning producers Dean Jones and Steve Albini, cellist Jane Scarpantoni & percussionist Mike Dillon.
