Oakland, California-based singer, songwriter, and keyboardist Anthony Ferraro established the dreamy, soul-tinged indie pop of Astronauts, etc. in 2012, a year before he became a regular member of the touring band for Toro y moi . The project drifted toward a more refined soul-pop on its label and studio debut, 2015's Mind Out Wondering, before returning to a softer focus.Anthony Ferraro was studying music performance at UC Berkeley when his hopes of becoming a concert pianist were foiled by worsening arthritis in his hands. He shifted gears toward less mechanically demanding indie pop around the time he met Chaz Bear (aka Chaz Bundick ) of Toro y moi in 2012. The same year, he issued the self-recorded Supermelodic Pulp EP, the debut of Astronauts, etc. It featured cover art by Bear. Ferraro finished a degree in Musicology and began playing keyboards on tour for Toro y moi before releasing his second home-recorded EP, Sadie, in 2014.
Recorded at John Vanderslice's analog studio Tiny Telephone with Ferraro's live band, Astronauts, etc.'s full-length debut, Mind Out Wandering, featured a more streamlined, if still warm sound that took influence from '70s soul. It was released by Hit City USA in 2015. He followed it two months later with an all-demos version of the album. The project's second long-player returned to a hazy, lower-fi sensibility for its wistful soul arrangements. Released in 2018, Living in Symbol was co-produced by Bear. Astronauts, etc. followed the album with a co-headlining tour with The Mattson 2 . ~ Marcy Donelson, Rovi
