Vanishing Twin

Vanishing Twin are a London-based psychedelic pop quintet, founded in 2015.

The band consists of Cathy Lucas (Fanfarlo) on vocals, Valentina Magaletti on drums (whose credits include Tomaga, Bat for Lashes and Gruff Rhys’ Neon Neon project), bassist Susumu Mukai (aka Zongamin), with Phil M.F.U. (Man From Uranus and former Broadcast sound manipulator) on "strange sounds" and filmmaker/visual artist Elliott Arndt on flute and percussion.

The group’s cosmopolitan membership initially reflected its mission to synthesize psychedelic traditions around the globe, from tropicalía to kosmische rock. Their sound has been compared to the band Stereolab and is described as Brazilian psych-jazz as well as a psychedelic, experimental pop ensemble.
