UK - their joyful stage show is not to be missed by fans of live music.
The beginnings of this Cambridge band can be traced back to a time when frontman Michael Angelakos was composing songs
for his then-girlfriend - tracks which eventually became the Chunk of Change EP. As Michael started playing
solo shows he met keyboardist Ian Hultquist, and it wasn't long before the two began to perform as Passion Pit. Come 2008
the band was fully formed as we know them today, releasing a parade of whimsical dance singles to acclaim among established
music journalists and hype-building bloggers.
Many of Angelakos' lyrics deal with dark themes that are set to catchy electropop beats. These anthemic compositions have
been used for a slew of adverts, television shows and movie trailers, popularising the group's quirky brand of dance music.
Their international wave of success has included touchstone performances at Glastonbury and opening for bombastic rock threesome
Muse.
