Description

In this episode, Jason Huber from Cherub dives deep into the duo’s 15-year journey—sharing how they built their sound, evolved their live show, and continue to innovate using Ableton Live. He talks about slimming down their touring rig, producing with modular synths, crafting custom effects with stock plugins, and how the band keeps everything stable even after hundreds of shows.


Cherub is a well established electro-pop duo made up of Jordan Kelley and Jason Huber, known for their viral hit “Doses & Mimosas” and energetic, guitar-driven live shows. Since forming at Middle Tennessee State University, they’ve released multiple albums including Year of the CapreseBleed Gold, Piss Excellence, and their latest record Everything Changes and That’s Okay. Blending funk, indie, and electronic vibes, Cherub remains a big name in the festival and touring scene.
