Here We Go Magic is an American indie rock band based in Brooklyn, New York. Formerly the moniker of folk singer Luke Temple, they signed to Secretly Canadian as a five piece band in September 2009. After previously releasing two folk albums under his own name in the mid-2000s,[1] Luke Temple released a self-titled album as Here We Go Magic in February 2009 under Western Vinyl, described by Pitchfork Media as "hazy electronic textures, endlessly-spiraling lyrical loops, occasional forays into extended sections of ambience and noise".[2][3] Temple recorded the album at home on a 4-track recorder, describing the recording: "I just had one tom, one microphone, a synth and an acoustic guitar. I didn't have a full drum kit or normal bass, it was just all synth stuff that I did myself."[4]
Temple has since expanded the project into a band with musicians Kristina Lieberson (keyboards), Michael Bloch (guitar), Jennifer Turner (bass guitar), and Peter Hale (drums), and they were signed by Secretly Canadian in September 2009.[5][6][7][8] They toured in 2009 with Grizzly Bear and The Walkmen.[9] The second album Pigeons is set for release on June 8, 2010.[10] The first single off Pigeons, "Collector", was rated "Best New Music" by Pitchfork Media on March 18, 2010.[11] The band performed at the SXSW festival in 2009 and again in March 2010,[9] and are touring North America with White Rabbits,[12] and will tour Europe with The New Pornographers,[13] also playing at major UK festivals including The Great Escape, Glastonbury, Latitude, and Bestival.
