Sydney-based trio Mansionair made their debut with breakout hit 'Hold Me Down' which made radio waves from the clubs of Australia, over to Paris and across the ocean to Brooklyn. It began in 2014 when singer Jack Froggatt, who had been playing the local music scene, accepted an invitation to top-line a suite of production beats by producer/guitarist Lachlan Bostock and drummer/producer Alex Nicholls. 'Hold Me Down,' a mélange of ethereal falsetto and ambient-synth-pop brought together the individual talents of each musician and solidified the formation of the three-piece band now known as Mansionair.
Soon after, the band signed to Glassnote and Liberation Records and were handpicked by CHVRCHES to open on their headline tour across the USA, UK, and Europe. Mansionair went on to join Alt-J and Florence & The Machine on the road, most recently wrapping up a tour with London Grammar.
While working on their latest release, the band collaborated with Odesza on their lead single ‘Line Of Sight’, which has since earned them a Grammy nomination after climbing Billboard’s Alternative and Dance/Electronic charts.
Now, their breakout turn for the group, ‘Astronaut (Something About Your Love)’ is a genre-splitting shot from the soul; as playful as it is a sincere exploration of loneliness and distant affections.
