Pearl & the Oysters, originally from Paris and now based in Los Angeles, bring their eclectic pop sound to the vibrant music scene of the city. Their journey from jazz clubs in New York to the DIY art rock scene in Gainesville has shaped their evolving sound, which is warmly embraced in L.A.'s space age jazz-pop community.
Their second LP on Stones Throw, "Planet Pearl," continues the band's signature dreamy escapism while also delving into themes of alienation and reality. Through hypnotic melodies and vivid imagery, Juju and Jojo explore the challenges of navigating the complexities of modern life, from the digital age to the rootlessness of constant touring.
