About
Named for the glowing, five-pointed star that the iconic bubblegum-pink Nintendo character Kirby hails from, Wishy’s latest offering, Planet Popstar (out now via <a href="spotify:playlist:0w1Xj3QbXJ7WV6Y3AEefXa" data-name="Winspear">Winspear</a>) is a bite-sized antidote to the anxiety and precarity of life in the 2020s. A sun-soaked, hazy reflection on the band’s central themes–love, life, self-discovery and having fun–it’s a compilation of tracks that shows another side of the band’s kaleidoscopic sound. Following the enthusiastic reception and critical acclaim of last year's Triple Seven, their first US headline tour, and looking ahead at an already packed-full 2025, the band decided not to leave the remaining songs from the <a href="spotify:album:0xCWaLwotmO3NtVQsHrhNf" data-name="Triple Seven">Triple Seven</a> sessions on the cutting room floor. Bolstered by the rare musical synergy between Krauter and Pitchkites, Planet Popstar completes a loose web of vignettes and snapshots capturing them in a whirlwind couple of years — exiting the pandemic, embarking on an embryonic project, making sense of their musical pasts while forging a musical future alongside one another, each of them on a journey of self-acceptance and self-understanding.
