Toro y Moi announces new album Hole Erth, which is set for release on September 6th via Dead Oceans. In conjunction with the album’s announcement, he’s sharing new single “Tuesday ” alongside an India Sleem-directed music video shot across Berkeley, Oakland and San Francisco, California.
While Toro y Moi has long built a reputation for reinventing himself from one body of work to the next, Hole Erth might represent his boldest musical pivot to date. The album synthesizes anthemic pop-punk and autotuned, melancholic rap into a body of work that is both very much of the now, but also a reflection of long-running threads in Toro y Moi mastermind Chaz Bear’s musical history — from his childhood immersion in punk and emo to his past production work for some of the biggest names in modern rap. First single “Tuesday” serves as a statement of intent, complete with serrated guitar tones and a soaring chorus.
Speaking about the album and its genesis, Bear shares: “I hope you enjoy this suburban anthem, growing up, the often-controversial-line between mainstream and underground artists was so defined but now that line has become so blurred I can’t even tell what I like anymore…sometimes.”
In addition to the album, Toro y Moi announces headline performances at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Forever Cemetery including a supporting DJ set from Zack Fox and another performance at The Knockdown Center in New York the following month. Those show announcements follow his recent announcement of a headline show at The Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA in August. That show marks Toro y Moi’s biggest headlining show to date in his headlining market and his first headlining show in the area since selling out two nights at The Fillmore in San Francisco in 2019.
