Outline

Car Seat Headrest is the project of guitarist/singer/songwriter Will Toledo, who has been recording music on his lo-fi tools and releasing them on line on Bandcamp for years before the band emerged in the mid '10s on a traditional record label. Toledo is a skilled and inventive songwriter with a distinctive, easy going, though not really upbeat style. He sings in a relaxed and creaky voice and his music tends to rely less on hooks or grooves, but on full musical phrases. He does not mind taking his time to prep long and weighty intros into his songs, or shifting his tone and tempo as the song progresses. The band responds to these dramatic shifts by giving the songs a garage rock type body as needed, sometimes going big, other times striping the sound down to its basics. Their more recent work incorporates keyboards and electronics, going for a broader and smoother overall sound.
