Trash Panda began in 2015 as the pet recording project of songwriter/producer/multi-instrumentalist
Patrick Taylor, expanding into a duo then a trio in 2016. Pulling influences as wide as neopsychedelia,
soul, indie rock and pop music, the band considers themselves somewhat post-genre. Darlings of the
indie scene, Trash Panda tapped into both the perils of modern dating and the existential questions of
dark nights of the soul. Their 2016 EP Off features crowd-favorites “Aging Out of the 20thCentury”
and “Check Please.” Trash Panda’s 2018 albumThe Starclimber made a splash with tongue-in-cheek
banger “Atlanta Girls” alongside the psychedelic groove of “Heartbreak Pulsar.” After the album the
band went on hiatus and pursued other projects, emerging four years later in 2022 with several new
members for a single, “Things Will Never Change,” which is quickly gaining attention, featured in its
first week on Spotify’s Indie Chillout and Modern Psychedelia playlists. In its first wave, only two
years of frenzied creativity, the band made a regional splash touring small and mid-sized venues and
during its four year hiatus reached a certain level global cult status, with passionate fans spanning the
globe. Trash Panda plans to release its second full length album in 2023 coinciding with an extensive
album support tour.
