About Islet

The Powys, Wales experimental pop outfit Islet relishes their status as an unabashedly independent band. They're more likely to communicate through their 'zine The Isness than through social media; vocalists/multi-instrumentalists Emma and Mark Daman Thomas have kept their day jobs; and their free-flowing mix of psych, folk, electronic, and indie rock changes from release to release. On 2012's Illuminated People and the following year's Released from the Movement, their wild-eyed sound evoked the likes of Gang Gang Dance and Animal Collective. While 2016's Liquid Half Moon EP and 2020's ambitious and affecting full-length Eyelet offered a more cohesive version of the band's music, the spontaneity and dynamic extremes of 2023's Soft Fascination reaffirmed their commitment to experimentation.
