Tonstartssbandht: “Breathe”

Feb 24, 2017

Listen to “Breathe” by the Florida / New York duo known as Tonstartssbandht (tahn-starts-bandit) and pass through a winding psychedelia wormhole at any given point in your day. The nearly 12 minute sojourn draws out like a desert daydream and is off Sorcerer, the new full-length studio album from Andy and Edwin White, out March 24th on Mexican Summer.

The duo’s label introduces Sorcerer as “three long form depictions of Tonstartssbandht’s boundless spirit; ambitious noise rock narratives buoyed in a swampy sonic scene of delay, distortion, and virtuosic interplay.” It was recorded between Brooklyn and Orlando where they allowed ambient sound elements of the respective neighborhoods in to add dimensions to their playing. The two brothers recently relocated from New York back to Orlando. Andy plays in Mac Demarco’s band, and they will be on tour in May opening for him. Tour are dates below. They’re also heading to Marfa Myths and will play one set as Tonstartssbandht, and another as Lonnie Holley’s backing band.” – Charles Steinberg
