Toro Y Moi, born on 7 November 1986 in Columbia, South Carolina, is a renowned producer from the United States. With his unique blend of electronic and indie pop music, he has captivated audiences worldwide. His innovative sound and experimental approach to music have earned him critical acclaim and a dedicated fan base. Toro Y Moi continues to push boundaries and redefine genres with his distinct style.

Toro y Moi’s Sandhills is both a tender love letter to Chaz Bear’s hometown of Columbia, South Carolina, and a poignant, bittersweet acceptance that one can never really go back home. Recalling Sufjan’s Seven Swans or Karen O’s soundtrack work for Where The Wild Things Are, these loping folk-pop songs are themselves a sort of Saturn return, reminiscent of Bear’s first handmade CD-Rs as Toro y Moi. Bear gave them out to friends in the earliest days of the moniker, the releases stuffed in the Case Logic visor of their cars, and each listen brings a little more of that detail to life: the mall after which Sandhills is named; the teenaged friends spending aimless hours there, full of big ennui and bigger dreams; the late-capitalist decline and empty big box stores of Sandhills today.
