Tontea

Tontea (literally “Go flirt”) is the mouthpiece of a kitchen-sink philosopher whose girlypop absurdism finds its home in the jangling garage rock rhythms of her fellow bandmates. Taking equally after the theatrics of Chappell Roan and Black Midi, and the angular riffs of Slint and Dry Cleaning, the band’s performances swing from comedic to intensely captivating both between and within the curt songs of their fever-dream setlist.
