ASTR is an electronic/alternative duo from New York City that makes edgy, experimental, dance-oriented music that blurs the lines between atmospheric pop and soulful R&B. Formed in 2013, ASTR features singer Zoe Silverman and producer Adam Pallin. The duo sparked interest after playing several well-received shows during the 2013 CMJ festival, In 2014, ASTR released their debut EP, Varsity, on 300 Entertainment, which SPIN named as #3 Best Pop album of 2014. Described as “sexy, electronic yet eerie,” their brand of “dark pop” has been compared to The Weeknd and Robyn. ASTR has steadily garnered a fanbase performing at festivals including Ultra, Governor's Ball, Life Is Beautiful, SXSW and Hangout Festival. The duo is fresh off of a North American tour with Ryn Weaver and Holychild, and recently released their sophomore Homecoming EP, featuring the single “Bleeding Love.”
