Mistletone

Mistletone is proud to present the return of Toro y Moi and The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart for Laneway Festival 2012.

Hailing from South Carolina, TORO Y MOI’s Chaz Bundick — multi-talented 24 year old musician, designer and photographer — recently released his brilliant new 12″ EP Freaking Out (out now on Mistletone Records / Inertia and available on mail order). Toro y Moi’s recent live shows, meanwhile, have been described as akin to ‘a flashy, sex-fueled 80s rooftop fiesta’, which is to say they require your attendance.

It’s not hard to get your head around the appeal of THE PAINS OF BEING PURE AT HEART. Belong is their second album and it’s classic indie pop: jangly guitars, sun-soaked melodies, themes of heartbreak, redemption and so on. It’s like they sat down and wrote an album specifically for the Australasian summer!

PERTH – SATURDAY 11th FEBRUARY @ Perth Cultural Centre – Beaufort Street, Perth WA 6000 Tickets on sale now.

ADELAIDE – FRIDAY 10th FEBRUARY @ Fowler’s Live – 68-70 North Terrace, Adelaide SA 5000. Tickets on sale now.

Thursday 9 February: Toro Y Moi + Washed Out + Chet Faker + Two Bright Lakes DJs @ The Hi-Fi. Tickets $50 + bf on sale now from the venue, phone 1300-THEHIFI (843 443) or Polyester Records. Presented by Mistletone, Penny Drop, Triple R + The Thousands.

Mistletone and Penny Drop are happy to announce that Washed Out and Toro Y Moi are teaming up for two blissed-out double headline shows in Sydney and Melbourne. Both bands are also on the Laneway Festival lineup nationally.

The friendship between Toro Y Moi‘s Chaz Bundick and Washed Out’s Ernest Greene goes back to their high school days in South Carolina. Growing up in the south with a host of shared influences and aesthetics, both artists have maintained a mutual admiration and love of collaboration as they have followed their own trajectories, each wielding an increasingly resonant influence over the musical culture of today. Having remixed each other’s tunes and toured together in the US, and now sharing a place on the Laneway Festival lineup, it makes perfect sense for Washed Out and Toro Y Moi to join forces for this special show.

Mistletone, FBi + The Thousands are proud to present the return of The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart with special guests Geoffrey O’Connor + Rainbow Chan at Manning Bar on Thursday, 9 February. Tickets on sale now from the venue.

Hailing from Brooklyn, The Pains of Being Pure At Heart became one of the most talked about indie pop bands with their self-titled debut album on Slumberland; an instant classic packed with brilliantly-executed pop gems. Drawing on the sparkling legacy of 80s and 90s indie pop, the Pains blend their rush of youthful enthusiasm with crafty arrangements, well-honed tunes and buckets of guitar racket. There is something instantly identifiable about a Pains tune, and it is the essential rightness of their records that has captured the attention of pop fans around the world.

Overflowing with exuberance, charm and songcraft, the Pains breathe new life into indie pop. Supported by the ever-wonderful Geoffrey O’Connor, this will be a night of swoonful pop bliss.
