Toro y Moi’s ‘Sandhills’ is both a tender love letter to Chaz Bear’s hometown of Columbia, South Carolina, and a poignant, bittersweet acceptance that one can never really go back home.
Recalling Sufjan’s ‘Seven Swans’ or Karen O’s soundtrack work for ‘Where The Wild Things Are’, these loping folk-pop songs are themselves a sort of Saturn return, reminiscent of Bear’s first handmade CD-Rs as Toro y Moi.
Chaz Bear aka Toro y Moi - is now a globally beloved indie-pop icon. But ‘Sandhills’, with its banjo and lap steel flourishes, concedes that you never quite totally rid yourself of those adolescent blues.
Side B features a vinyl etching showcasing lyrics from ‘Sandhills’.
Press - Reviews & features in New York Times, Pitchfork, NPR, Pitchfork, FADER, NME, Line of Best Fit, Complex, Clash.
