Sydney-based duo The Presets are known for putting on spectacular live shows. This fall, the electronic pair will be bringing a brand new show to the U.S. as a part of this year’s Check Yo Ponytail tour.
The Presets, composed of Julian Hamilton and Kim Moyes, formed in 2003. Between the two of them, the pair’s musical resume includes performances at Coachella and SXSW, as well as opening for Daft Punk. The pair has also been awarded several ARIA awards for their singles and albums. Since the release of their album Pacifica in 2012, The Presets have put out two singles, “Goodbye Future” and “No Fun” this year.
In addition to writing and producing their own music, Hamilton and Moyes have worked on songs for other artists, including Lenny Kravitz.
The Australian duo will be among the artists featured on this year’s Check Yo Ponytail Tour, hosted by IHEARTCOMIX. Begun in 2006, Check Yo Ponytail (CYP) is “an open-genre, multimedia-driven events series” that “has premiered some of today’s top performers with a few tried and true legacy acts in between,” according to CYP’s official site.
The tour is travelling across the U.S. and Canada throughout Fall, and CYP will be bringing the Presets to the 9:30 Club on Sunday, November 2—and we have a pair of tickets to the event we’re giving away!
