Bubble Tea and Cigarettes was founded in New York City where the two members Andi and Kat met. Starting in 2019, the project took shape in the couple's bedroom where they record and produce their songs. Their dreamy ballads take the audience on an emotional journey with mellow and evocative melodies, breathy vocal and hazy ambiance full of reverb - everything you need in a good dream pop song.

In a world of immediacy, speed, and the here and now, we seem to have lost the trail of those groups that caress you, that cradle you, that feel like they accompany our sadness and turn it into something beautiful. What groups like Galaxie 500, Red House Painters, Low, Mazzy Star, or more recently Cigarettes After Sex, Warahenege and Joni do. That's why we listen to each new song from Bubble Tea and Cigarettes like a gift, an opportunity, a narcotic journey to the deepest part of our feelings. That's how we have experienced each of their five singles that have been released over the past year or so, and now it's time to celebrate, because the time has come for Andi and Kat's first album, There's Nothing But Pleasure.

The album delves deeper into the preciousness that can be found in silence, of the magic of slow tempos, that seem to beat at the same pace as our heart. Where Andi and Kat's voices, the reverb, the delays, the crystalline guitars all create a false sense of fragility, that everything could break at any given moment, of containment, and of course, of emotion. With nocturnal themes, and where cigarette smoke seems to take on a sonic quality, full of hedonism, the songs also benefit from the great mixing work of Anthony "Rocky" Gallo (Norah Jones, Cat Power, The xx), and the mastering of Greg Calbi (Stevie Wonder, John Lennon, David Bowie, Tame Impala, Arcade Fire).
