“Allbrook, much like Bradford Cox or even Bowie, has a knack for conveying the beauty and madness of the human condition in his lyrics and performance…
- UNCUT
"..thrilling and unpredictable.."
- THE AGE
"..Pond are at the top of their game.”
- THE BIG ISSUE
Set to headline Bad Friday Weekender and Boogie Fest and following on from rapturously received performances with Mac De Marco, today POND announces a one-off headline show in Fremantle. Joined by special guests Children Collide, the five-piece will take the stage at Freo.Social on Saturday 4 April for their last hometown show for awhile, as they ready to return to the studio to record album #9.
2019 was a milestone year for the prolific and one-of-a-kind collective. POND’s eighth studio album Tasmania debuted at #15 on the ARIA album chart and #2 on the AIR independent chart in March. Their most critically acclaimed album to date, Tasmania features the alt-pop anthem Daisy, psychedelic space romp Sixteen Days, the grandiose The Boys Are Killing Me and spatial adventure Burnt Out Star.
The release was followed by a live studio album Sessions in November. Recorded during their European tour, Sessions featured the exhilarating album cut Don’t Look at the Sun (Or You'll Go Blind). The live fan-favourite contains a reference to Six Pack by ESG and Firestarter by The Prodigy.
Continuing to expand their performance resumé, in the past year POND has performed sold-out headline shows across the nation and extensive tours of North America, Europe and the UK. They’ve also performed a slew of festivals including Splendour in the Grass, Glastonbury, Primavera, We Love Green and many more.
