A New Zealand band built on Christie Simpson's airy vocals and Josh Burgess's layered instrumentation.
For a good sense of their vibe, put on 'In Blue' or 'Barricade (Matter Of Fact)'. That's the zone they live in.
Their music creates a specific kind of mood that's hard to pin down but easy to get lost in. Songs like 'In Blue' and 'Barricade (Matter Of Fact)' show how they craft intimate spaces that somehow feel expansive. It's pop music that prioritizes texture and feeling over big hooks or obvious statements.
They formed around 2010 in New Zealand, originally as Yumi and the Weather. After signing with Polyvinyl in 2014, they've steadily released albums like 'Yoncalla', 'Willow Creek', and 'Present Tense', with their core sound remaining consistent even as the lineup expanded.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
