Brought together at their Parisian high school by a shared affection for hip 70s jazz and 90s retro space pop, Pearl and the Oysters are very likely the good times duo you need in your life. Planet Pearl, the pair's second record for Stones Throw, finds them diving for "jazz-pop joy to depressed disco" and coming up with a baker's dozen perfect pop gems. - Flying Out
Planet Pearl is French-American duo Pearl and The Oysters’ second album for Stones Throw, the follow up to Coast 2 Coast. Planet Pearl sees Pearl and The Oysters as castaway space explorers marooned on earth, pondering their own estrangement from the planet as they navigate an alien world.
From jazz-pop joy to depressed disco, Planet Pearl’s songs approach heavy subjects like family illness and neurodivergence with a light touch. But no matter how melancholic or alienated they feel, P&TO always see the fun side. Get ready to land on Planet Pearl!
