Gorgeous indie-rock laced with bittersweet reflection, the debut album from beloved West Coast band TANGERINE is out this October 25th, 2024. Instagram: tangerinetheband Tangerine was formed in 2012 by Marika (vocals, guitar), Miró (drums), Toby Kuhn (guitar, production), and former bassist Ryan Baker. Encouraged by early successes such as spins on KEXP and 107.7 The End, and a streaming hit with single “Feel This Way,” the Justads and Kuhn relocated to Los Angeles as a trio in 2017. Soon after, they joined Bleachers on the road as main support for a North American tour and worked with Zach Dawes (Lana Del Rey) and Mikey Schuman (Queens of the Stone Age) on singles “Sly Moon” and “Fever Dream.” A family tragedy in 2019 brought everything to a halt, and the band took a much-needed break to process and grieve. In the stillness that followed, Justad and Kuhn began to write what would become their first full-length album as a duo. The LP finds Justad and Kuhn grounded in a world at once natural and mystical, evoking images of clear blue skies, dusky desert magic, pink glowing sunsets, a full moon, or soaking rain. Light pours out of each melodic hook and Justad’s airy vocals add a sense of shimmering whimsy, as showcased in the lush and expansive lead single “Timeless.” All photos by Miró Justad.
