“On the surface, TV Girl is a sunny, throwback splash of ’60s French pop and southern California soul. Yet, under that shiny veneer lays a dark heart, beating with sharp wit and cynical alienation, and the music is all the more alluring for it.
TV Girl was formed in 2010 by Brad Petering as an outlet to blend the love of Spector-esque girl-group pop with an emerging interest in hip-hop. Featuring shimmering vocals and sampled beats, the self-titled debut EP of the same year turned heads online immediately; the group’s lush vintage rhythms and timeless pop hooks were even making waves on the BBC. Soon after, Jason Wyman joined the band and they continued to release increasingly popular EPs and mixtapes between tours. Last summer, TV Girl unveiled their first full-length, the critically acclaimed French Exit.
The album keeps true to the TV Girl charm with a bevy of electronic samplings infused throughout light and airy guitars, whirring organs, and ethereal vocals. However, this record is not all summer nostalgia, and there are plenty of times where French Exit reads like disaffected fiction. The moody characters in these songs are fueled by revenge as often as love, underpinned by desperation and a deep yearning to connect.
Since its release in June of 2014, TV Girl’s debut album French Exit has become something of a cult classic. Dollar signs in their eyes, TV Girl decided to record its follow-up, Who Really Cares, which will be out in February 2016.”

Poppet is the alter ego of California raised musician Molly Raney. Using a keyboard, drum machine, loop pedal, and her own voice, Poppet creates fully orchestrated electro-loop-pop. Weird pop. Weird pop for the post-apocalypse. Birds included. Spaceship recommended.
“Songs such as “Fanatical Bird Dance” flit through the mind’s vision like a loosed sprite[…]Others are shaped of a markedly different vapor[…]In between is the full specturm of joy and despair, naiveté and jadedness, recklessness and refinement, that paints a portrayal of an aritist willing to reveal the innermost.” –Andrew C. Russel, Submerge Magazine
