Description
Brooklyn indie electro-pop duo Chairlift return to Australian shores in 2012, set to entrance audiences with shows at Laneway Festival and exclusive sideshow performances in Sydney and Melbourne. Supported by Elizabeth Rose.
Members Caroline Polachek and Patrick Wimberly first captured the attention of international listeners with their breakout single Bruise and debut record Does You Inspire You in 2008. They displayed a range of uncanny pop sensibilities, combining polished production with an other-worldly gaze similar to fellow Brooklyn experimentalists MGMT, Yeasayer and Mixel Pixel.
Now, Chairlift are fresh from spending the last year huddled away in the spare room of an antique shop, working hard at producing their upcoming album Something due out early 2012. First single Amanaemonesia was released in September and its upbeat synth haze, exotic percussive layers, and husky vocals have punctuated airwaves across Australia since.
