CAR SEAT HEADREST Play New Single ‘CAN’T COOL ME DOWN’ In A Bedroom

Posted on by JL

24 November 2020

After hitting the scene 10 years ago and releasing multiple albums
WILL TOLEDO and his band CAR SEAT HEADREST are indie stars.

The most recent LP Making A Door Less Open came out in the
early lockdown so the band had to cancel their promotion tour.

But this weekend they took the opportunity to
play live on American’s The Tonight Show.

Their performance’s location was pretty special with the band packed
into a small bedroom while playing new single Can’t Cool Me Down.

Enjoy here…

New Album ‘MAKING A DOOR LESSEN OPEN’ By CAR SEAT HEADREST

Posted on by JL

13 May 2020

‘Making A Door Less Open’ by WILL TOLEDO and his band CAR SEAT HEADREST
12th longplayer – released: 1st May 2020

A word from Toledo:“Each track is the result of an intense battle to bring out its natural
colors and transform it into a complete work. The songs contain elements of EDM, hip hop, futurism, doo-wop, soul, and of course rock and roll. But underneath all these things I think these may be folk songs, because they can be played and sung in many different ways, and they’re about things that are important to a lot of people: anger with society, sickness, loneliness, love…the way this album plays out is just our own interpretation of the tracks,
with Andrew, Ethan and I forming a sort of choir of contrasting natures.

TUTV score: 4/5

Toledo about wearing a mask: I decided to start wearing a mask for a couple of reasons. One, I still get nervous being onstage with everybody looking at me. If everyone is looking at the mask instead, then it feels like we’re all looking at the same thing, and that is more honest to me. Two, music should be about enjoying yourself, especially live music, and I think of this costume as a way to remind myself and everyone else to have some fun with it.”
