Pleasure Prince
Hometown: Idaho Springs, CO
Formed: The two of us have been playing music together for nearly a decade. Pleasure Prince was formed while we were living in Harlem in New York City in 2014. We wrote the songs for our EP, Entry there, and then recorded them in our studio when we moved to Bushwick, Brooklyn in 2016. After the release of “Entry” in 2018, we began writing all of the songs featured on our debut album and recorded demos. We returned to Colorado in 2020 to build our new professional recording studio, “The Mine," which is where we recorded, engineered, and produced Numbers.
Latest Release: Our debut album, “Numbers” releases April 22nd, 2022!! The singles “Bot Pop,” “Patterns,” and “A Holiday” are out now!
Pronouns: Will Duncan (he/him) & Lilly Scott (she/her)
About: Surfacing from the depths of the Rocky Mountains, Pleasure Prince stands alone as a truly new and unique sound. The duo have crafted a cinematic essence of steamy, passionate, synth-pop. AXS Los Angeles reviewed their latest singles saying, “Scott and Duncan beam their love up to a place where experimental and pop music come together in perfect harmony.” Brooklyn blog The Deli Mag, noted their vocals “echo the sweetness and retro-futuristic sci-fi edge of the much beloved Broadcast.” Blending electronica and psychedelic influences, Pleasure Prince is an emerging band that deserves more attention.
Both talented multi-instrumentalists and producers, William Duncan and Lilly Scott compose each song themselves in their Colorado Mountain recording studio, “The Mine.” They released their first two singles, "No Work Today" and "You Look Good To Me” in 2017, receiving national press with only internet releases. In 2018, they released their debut EP, “Entry,” recorded in Brooklyn.
New York City blog, ‘Audiofemme’ premiered their 2018 ”ENTRY EP” saying, “In the not-so-distant future, when the earth is covered in red sand dunes and everyone is finally wearing floor length metal space dresses, humans will need some sick jams to make love to. Brooklyn’s own Pleasure Prince is eager to provide the musical backdrop.”
Pleasure Prince has been hard at work in the studio since the release of “Entry”, recording their debut full-length record, “Numbers” - set to release April 22nd, 2022.
The first two singles, “Bot Pop” and “Patterns” were released fall 2021, and are available to stream on all platforms. The next single, “A Holiday” released March 11th, 2022.
Musicians That Inspire: We are constantly pulling inspiration from so many different genres and eras of music. Our constant influences are Broadcast, Prince, Radiohead, Can, Tom Waits, Kraftwerk, Billie Holiday, Brian Eno, and Julee Cruise. Some newer artists that are really making us think differently are L’Imperatrice, Kit Sebastian, Rosalia, Porches, El Michels Affair, Mr. Twin Sister, and Tinariwen. We also love strange electronic instrumental records from the 60’s & 70’s, middle-eastern prog, krautrock, and French new wave.
What's next for the band in 2022: Our debut album release show is Saturday, April 23rd at the Bobcat Club/Skylark Lounge! We are excited to spend this year promoting “Numbers", touring, and performing as much as possible! We will also be releasing videos for each song on the album, creating a movie-like story for listeners. Our dream is to tour internationally and spend every day performing for you!
