Purple Pilgrims are back with a new album. The New Zealand sisters Clementine and Valentine Nixon have been building this hazy, otherworldly sound together for 15 years now, and they're finally following 2023's The Coin That Broke the Fountain Floor with a stunner called Given To The Night.
If you know these two, you know their story. Raised between New Zealand and Hong Kong, they've spun their dream-pop into collaborations with the Chills and Roy Montgomery, plus tours alongside Aldous Harding and Weyes Blood. That pedigree runs deep.
The first taste is "Innocence Lost," and it's a gem: layered, weightless, the kind of track that pulls you under and keeps you there. This is a duo that never rushes, never overplays their hand.
Fifteen years in, they sound more assured than ever. The Nixon sisters have carved out a space nobody else can touch, and this new era feels like a moment worth marking.
Turn it up loud and let it swallow you whole.
