Los Angeles’ notorious lo-fi pop oufit Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti have been unveiled as the latest signings to 4AD.
The group are currently recording their first record for the label, due spring 2010.
With roots going back as far as 1996, the West Coast act are as sublime as they are surreal with a sound loaded with hazy nostalgia and a fiercely experimental pop palette.
The band have previously picked up particular plaudits for the Haunted Graffiti releases via Paw Tracks, The Doldrums (2004), Worn Copy (2005) and House Arrest (2006).
Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti will perform a small number of European dates in December, taking in the following climbs:
4 Bristol Qujunktions @ TBC, UK
5 Minehead All Tomorrow’s Parties, UK
6 Cardiff Buffalo, UK
7 Nottingham The Bodega, UK
8 London The Rest Is Noise, UK
9 Manchester Deaf Institute, UK
10 Paris Point Ephemere, FR
11 Aalst Netwerk, BEL
13 London Lexington, UK
