CAR SEAT HEADREST IN CONCERT:

Car Seat Headrest play gleefully lo-fi power pop full of catchy hooks, and they always pump up the energy of their crowd-pleasing singalongs in concert. Frontman Will Toledo is the mastermind behind the band's brilliant sound, building a wall of raw guitar distortion as he sings his heart out on favorites like “Times to Die”, “Something Soon”, and “Maude Gone”. Wearing wire-rim glasses and loose fitting t-shirts, Toledo performs with a laid-back vibe that gets ticket buyers banging their heads and chanting in time to each catchy hook. With emotionally resonant lyrics to boot, Car Seat Headrest is primed to become everyone’s favorite new band with their irresistible sound and energetic live shows.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Recording project-turned-band Car Seat Headrest blasted out of virtual obscurity in 2014. Up until then musical mastermind Will Toledo had been singing his vocal takes straight into a laptop microphone while parked in his family's car -— which is how the project got its name. Between 2010-14 the Leesburg, VA-native released 11 albums through Bandcamp, amassing an army of fans strictly through word-of-mouth and online buzz. That all changed in 2014 when his impressive catalog caught the attention of Matador Records, who immediately signed him to a contract. Toledo decided to re-record several standouts for his 2015 label debut Teens of Style, which he supported on tour along with a newly formed backing band that helped bring his songs to life in concert. The album delivered on the promise of the singer-songwriter’s early releases, landing on several best-of lists and introducing his masterful tunes to a much wider audience. Car Seat Headrest has since grown into an energetic touring unit, bringing crowds at venues like the Observatory North Park to capacity, and leaving fans anxious to see what Toledo cooks up next.

    I saw CSH in Portland and Seattle this weekend - best album of 2016 - and both shows were great. Not a whole lot of variance in setlists, but full of energy. nice re-arrangement of DD/KW too.

    Incredible musician, spot on performance, intimate setting and interaction with the audience. Seriously though, Will Toledo is a professional and I can't wait to hear more!!
