Mood Beach

Pleasure Curses is an post-disco duo based out of Portland Oregon.

The creative and production partnership consists of Jahn Alexander Teetsov and Evan Maxwell Grice; childhood friends who reconnected after a decade through a chance meeting.

Formed in Washington DC, they sharpened their teeth playing everywhere from sweat-soaked punk basements and raging house parties to five star hotels and national art galleries in the city. Influenced by the aesthetics of electro, disco, new wave, and early hip-hop, they strafe the lines between experimental and accessible dance music that shatters the apathy of audiences at shows with manic and propulsive energy. Recently, that energy has propelled them to the west coast where they are currently located in Portland, Oregon.
