Sounds like: Active Child, How To Dress Well, Bon Iver
Two of Australia's rising stars recently collaborated to create an enthralling and gorgeous single. Danny Harley, the mastermind behind The Kite String Tangle, and singer/songwriter/producer Dustin Tebbutt bonded over their mutual admiration for each others' artistry.
“We went into the collab with no expectations at all,” Tebbutt has said. “[Harley] had this great bed of synths and ambience sussed out, and from there; the vocal parts just seemed to flow. Danny was so easy to work with, and I felt like we naturally met halfway creatively throughout the process.”
In April they released “Illuminate” to the world. A limited edition 10” vinyl EP, carrying two exclusive covers was released on June 5. TKSTXDT also have a select number of co-headlined shows down under that unsurprisingly appear to be sold out.
“Illuminate” is beyond beautiful. It sounds like a prayer.
Radiant and lovely in every way, this song is washed in tenderness. It is an intangible gem: shiny, sparkling, rare, and precious. It’s a warm whisper you want to keep locked in your heart. A gift, that needs to played and played and played.
