Passion Pit in Portland

Passion Pit is an American electronic indie-pop project formed in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 2007 and led by singer, songwriter and producer Michael Angelakos. Synth-driven arrangements and Angelakos’s falsetto became hallmarks of the group’s sound on the albums Manners and Gossamer, which include “Sleepyhead,” “Little Secrets” and “Take a Walk.” In 2009, Passion Pit toured in support of Death Cab for Cutie as Manners brought the band to wider audiences. The group later headlined New York’s Madison Square Garden in 2013 during the touring cycle for Gossamer. Six years later, it returned to North American stages to perform its debut album in full on the Manners 10th Anniversary Tour.
