Sonic Yorks vs. the richest Devon cream-pop

Born of a cross-pollination between Totnes and Sheffield, Pale Blue Eyes have
been steadily grafting over a number of years to exact their modernist pop vision. At
the ship’s helm, Matt and Lucy Board are a genuine marriage of two stylistic
perspectives, each bringing unique sonic tropes to the table. It is the pair’s
fascination with DIY ethic, retro synths and reminiscence that truly fuels their sound
world, calling upon nostalgia and a captivating optimism. The third part of the Pale
Blue Eyes triad arrived when Matt and Lucy met bassist Aubrey Simpson at South
Devon’s Sea Change festival. Together they’ve made two albums, with several
tracks from both the albums playlisted at BBC Radio 6 Music, they've played two
Riley sessions, toured extensively in the UK and Europe, supported GOAT,
Slowdive, Sea Power, The Editors, Public Service Broadcasting, FEWS and more.
The band look forward to releasing their third album in 2025, which as with the first
two albums has been final mixed and mastered by sonic scientist Dean Honer.
Honer has produced the likes of The Human League, Add N to (x) and Roisin
Murphy, worked with countless Sheffield names from Jarvis Cocker to Tony
Christie.

Under the Radar: “Pale Blue Eyes are one of the most exciting bands to
emerge from the UK in recent years. Taking their cue from the likes of M83,
Slowdive and The Velvet Underground, they’ve fast become one of the
circuit’s must-see acts.”

Marc Riley, BBC 6 Music: “Really, really, great sophisticated pop music ”
