It's with the most open of arms that Modular is thrilled to welcome Pond to the family here. Born under a mulberry tree in Western Australia, Pond is Joseph Ryan, Nick Allbrook and Jay Watson. Under said mulberry tree the boys conceived the idea of an album of tropical psychedelic idiocy that they performed that night at a friends party in Perth. Over the next few years Pond recorded three albums and played a bunch of shows around Australia and Japan, supporting MGMT and playing at the St. Jerome's Laneway Festival. Come 2012, Pond are set to make their label debut and unleash Beard Wives Denim this coming March on Modular. Recorded at a friend's farmhouse and mixed by Kevin Parker (Tame Impala), Beard Wives Denim is an audio diary of ten friends' strange, terrible and blissful time in the country trying in vain to be a wholesome family band.
Featuring 'Fantastic Explosion of Time' & the new single ‘Moth Wings' the band take on North America for a string of dates in March including the coveted SxSW Festival in Texas before returning home to local shores in April. Beard Wives Denim will be released on March 2. Pre-order your signed CD copy from JB Hi Fi
