Offshoot One Bird Records adds Treasure to London MillionYoung date

Treasure, a.k.a. Hari Ashurst

Following the exciting announcement a while back that One Bird Records, an offshoot of MINE (yes, all mine – hello), had announced its first gig, it is now time to reveal a change to the bill.

Before you read on – and you trust me by now, right? – please book yourself a ticket: http://www.wegottickets.com/event/77883 – it’s for July 7 at London’s favourite pub, The Stag’s Head. It’s even got a house cat!

It’s already Pitchfork-adored and glo-fi thing of beaut’ MillionYoung‘s first ever London show, and it’s now Stereogum-treasured Treasure’s second official London show to boot, too. Fresh.

Truman Peyote and Many Mansions were scheduled to support headliner MillionYoung (what a coup!) but unfortunately had to pull out of the UK tour. They’ll be over later in the year.

But it has given us the amazing opportunity to book London-based and Waaga-signed certified chilly-with-a-heart-of-candyfloss wunderkind Treasure, who is just incredible.

Here is an accompanying video to his amazing track ‘Canada’, made by the super-talented Jamie Harley of Schmooze Blog:

And some press clippings – the highlights, if you will…

***MILLIONYOUNG***
- “Exactly what chillwave produced a stone’s throw from South Beach ought to sound like – a reminder that while most of these artists can only dream of an endless summer, Diaz is living it” – PITCHFORK
- “Mike Diaz’s aching, arching, always overhead vocals floating lonely above an effervescent, imagined coastal paradise of found tribal drum snippets, syrupy synth rushing and brilliantly colourful, drawn-out circular guitars that just absolutely refuse to fade or break, shading braincells in never-lived nostalgia” – TRANSPARENT BLOG

***TREASURE***
- “The field is his bedroom, and his 8-track serves as a notebook – recording everything that passes through.”
