LA underground cult figure turned international pop star, Ariel Pink’s sound is as sublime as it is surreal, loaded with hazy nostalgia and a fiercely experimental pop palette. Establishing himself as one of the most prolific songwriters and unique talents of his generation, Ariel Pink’s influence on today’s bands and genres has been profound.

In super exciting news just to hand, LA synth-pop sorceress Geneva Jacuzzi is joining Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti’s Australian tour. The gargantuan Sydney lineup now comprises Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti, Geneva Jacuzzi, Richard In Your Mind + Erik Omen.

Geneva Jacuzzi (born Geneva Garvin) is a musician and visual artist known for her unique style of synth driven bedroom pop recordings, theatrical stage personas and retro style video art. Her lyrics describe blood being thrown onto fire, clown-like machines in search of sadness, and the raging monologues of future/past elemental beings. Her live shows are unlike anything you will ever experience, referencing commedia dell’arte, Cocteau, Artaud, Schlemmer, dada, kabuki, French surrealism and Italian futurism.

Every Geneva Jacuzzi song is a starkly expressionistic mini-drama that with plots allowing her to find a new way into those places between art, music and theatre. Jacuzzi is a long-time collaborator with Ariel Pink — the most talked about act at Laneway 2011, the author of Pitchfork’s #1 jam last year (Round and Round), and one of the most influential artists of our time.

Don’t miss LA’s reigning prince and princess of lo-fidelity disco, experimental pop and mythical drama, with irresistible supports Richard In Your Mind + Erik Omen. Tickets on sale now from Moshtix.
