Ariel_Pink
Ariel Pink was already an accomplished illustrator when he first gained recognition for what had always been his true passion, music. He had been writing and recording songs since age ten and by seventeen had accumulated hundreds of his own cassette recordings. It was during this time, while working in virtual isolation, that Ariel Pink began to develop a cult following in his hometown of Los Angeles and around the world. In 2004, at the behest of New York’s Animal Collective, Pink received his big break and was projected into a much broader arena.
Since then, Pink has been working to assemble a band of musicians to do the near impossible: to recreate the rich sonic universe of his records in a live setting. Finally, he has succeeded in this task; Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti is comprised of accomplished music scene veterans including keyboardist Kenny Gilmore (Lilys), bassist Tim Koh (White Magic, All Night Radio), drummer Jimi Hey (Beachwood Sparks, All Night Radio), and guitarist Cole M. Greif-Neill (Ethnik Klensr, The Samps).

Seventies pop, psychedelic rock, North American FM melodies, confused lo-fi dissonances, drum noises made by mouth... All of this and more go into the music of Ariel Pink, Californian musician who is already being compared to the early Beck and whose “official” debut, “ The Doldrums”, came out on Paw Tracks, Animal Collective’s label. In fact, Pink was the first artist apart from the New York band who signed on that label. The days when he recorded demos in the basement of his house are gone. Or no, as both “House Arrest” and “Sacred Famous” still have that magic spirit and homemade quality which he does so well. After releasing a single on the label Mexican Summer, Pink is currently working on a new album.
