Artist: Pond

POND
POND are a psychedelic rock band hailing from Perth, Western Australia. Blending elements of garage, space, neo-psych and glam-rock, the outfit have achieved significant acclaim for their vast chaotic soundscapes and light-hearted lyrical flourishes.
POND consists of Nick Allbrook, Jay Watson, Joe Ryan, Jamie Terry, and James Ireland. They share various members with Tame Impala of which Jay Watson is a permanent member alongside his solo project GUM. Kevin Parker has produced all of POND's eight albums.
The bands sixth album, Man It Feels Like Space Again, peaked at 15 on the ARIA Charts as did their latest record Tasmania. The eccentric moves and charisma of Nick Allbrook continue to dazzle fans as the outfit embrace increasingly modular extended soundscapes.
