With the UK trio Is Tropical’s debut album Native To hitting stores on June 14th, they are revealing a teaser for their upcoming “The Greeks” video which was directed by MEGAFORCE. See the video teaser for “The Greeks” HERE.Their current video for “South Pacific” can be seen HERE.
Leading up to release date, they also want to offer a free remix of “The Greeks” by Moonlight Matters who recently turned out amazing remixes for Hercules & Love Affair, Ellie Goulding and The Drums. Download the MP3 HERE.
Already known for their stunning live shows where, behind their trademark masks, they effortlessly swoop from raw pop anthems to lo-fi dance songs, the young UK-based trio have been offering their first single, the up-tempo, dance-rock number, “The Greeks” through an exclusive download on Kitsune’s site here, and the remix here.
With their new album Native To, the UK trio Is Tropical are releasing their unique and signature brand of dance-pop music in America. The twelve tracks that comprise the album flow seamlessly from one to the next while at the same time covering the broad spectrum of musical stylings that catapulted them into the spotlight to begin with. Highlights of the album include the hard-hitting, lo-fi track, “Oranges”, as well as the dreamy and whimsical “Clouds” and “Lies”.
Is Tropical first entered the international scene with the release of their debut single “When O’ When’/'Seasick Mutiny' on Hit Club Records in January 2010. Produced by Alalal (The Big Pink / Klaxons), the single attracted the attention of fans and critics alike.
Dividing opinions with the band's refusal to show their faces, as well as their broad, all-encompassing sound, Is Tropical was soon at the forefront of the conflict between lo-fi purists and those who cherished the strange electronic instrumentals. They soon signed to legendary French label Kitsuné (Two Door Cinema Club, Delphic, Heartsrevolution).
Is Tropical is currently touring throughout Europe with more live and festival dates to be announced soon.
