Their 2024 album TANGK, produced alongside Nigel Godrich, Kenny Beats and band member Mark Bowen, earned three Grammy nominations and widespread critical praise.
The band have recently completed major sold out tours in the UK and the United States, headlined stages at major festivals including Glastonbury, and performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
