daste. are a duo from the Gold Coast Australia who make catchy lo-fi pop music with smooth R&B/soul influences, crafting a sound that can be likened to a mix between LEISURE, Tora, Parcels and Jungle. 

Since forming in 2019 daste. have given us a variety of exceptional singles, two EPs – Palette (2019) and Same As It Ever Was (2020), plus two albums – dusk&dawn (2021) and dasteWORLD (2025), which together have amassed over 100 million streams on Spotify alone.

By March 2023, daste. had achieved one of their long-term goals of reaching 1 million monthly listeners on Spotify, and by March 2024 they more than doubled that number surpassing 2.5 million monthly listeners.

They have supported the likes of Still Woozy, Tora, Sycco, Boo Seeka, Lastlings, Mickey Kojack & FELIVAND in Australia, and have performed at a variety of festivals/events such as EMC Sydney (2019), Mountain Goat Crawl (2023), Springtime (2023), Valley Fiesta (2024), SXSW Sydney (2024), BIGSOUND (AUS – 2025), and Cross The Tracks (UK – 2025). They have also embarked on multiple headline tours across Australia, and once across North America, United Kingdom and Europe.
