About

Will Toledo, known for his prolific and unconventional approach to music, recently performed a Tiny Desk Concert under his project name, Car Seat Headrest. The performance featured a mostly solo set with intermittent contributions from his friends and bandmates from Leesburg, VA and Seattle. Car Seat Headrest is renowned for its richly textured, chaotic yet harmonious sound that showcases Toledo's introspective lyrics within a finely crafted DIY aesthetic.

Car Seat Headrest, an American indie rock band, was formed by Will Toledo in 2010 as a solo project before growing to include Ethan Ives, Seth Dalby, and Andrew Katz. Toledo had self-released an impressive 12 albums on Bandcamp before signing with Matador Records in 2015 and beginning full-band tours in 2016.

Toledo's Tiny Desk performance highlighted his talent as a wordsmith and his ability to encapsulate his vulnerabilities and imperfections within his music. The concert, although just a snippet of the band's extensive discography, provided a glimpse into the band's unique musical style that seamlessly blends chaos and harmony.
