Born from a mutual love of down-tempo 90s electronica, Los Angeles three-piece Pollyn are set to officially release their sophomore album ‘Living in Patterns’ on 21st May via Republic of Music. Having already been championed by Rough Trade, the follow up to 2008’s ‘This Little Night’ is a heady blend new wave spook, hazy electronics and atmospheric pop. Hailing from LA, Pollyn are vocalist Genevieve Artadi, guitarist Anthony Cava, and beat maker/percussionist Adam Jay Weissman. Anthony and Adam met in college while studying creative writing and soon invited Anthony's younger cousin to help them out on vocal duties while they experimented with a sample-based sound. In 2008, with the release of their debut full length, their music had evolved into a fully fleshed out project, with live percussion, synths and vintage drum machines all incorporated into their signature sound. As cool as it is cozy the delicately arranged, new 9 track record is a step away from the morePortishead-esque efforts of the past: aligning itself with a moodier, funkier, Afrobeat ancestry drawn from elements of Creatures and Talking Heads. Having spent recent years touring the West Coast with the likes of Little Dragon and Dengue Feverwhile also releasing remixes of tracks by the likes of Gorillaz and Health, Pollyn are planning to head to our shores this summer for a string of live dates - an exciting prospect considering the trio expand to an eight piece on stage.
