California’s Puro Instinct announce full Australian tour dates around Melbourne Festival and This Is Nowhere Festival this October.
Founding Puro Instinct (formerly Pearl Harbor) members Piper and Skylar Kaplan began playing together in the summer of ‘08 with no experience and no idea what they were getting themselves into. After a year or so, they put together a proper band to begin crafting their ethereal pop confections. Armed with a barrage of gorgeously intertwining guitar lines, vocals drenched in swooning reverb, and a subtle tsunami of dark synth melodies.
In their, thus far, short career Puro Instinct have had the privilege of collaborating with pop guru Ariel Pink on the break through track Stilyagi, receiving rave reviews world-wide.
If you’ve ever wondered what it might sound like if Nico were to start a band with Felt on a beach in Malibu, here you go.
