pen pin

we are pen pin. Jeni Magana + Emily Moore Los Angeles’ pen pin is the new sun-soaked indie pop project from songwriters and multi-instrumentalists Jeni Magaña and Emily Moore. The duo are both acclaimed in their own right for their solo works as Magana and Total Brutal, as well as for their collaborations and session/tour performances with artists like Mitski, Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, Charli xcx, Good Neighbours, Jade Bird and countless others. Originally meeting while touring with Mitski, the duo’s fast friendship and joyful, natural chemistry inspired them to channel their mutual love of vintage pop into the creation of their upcoming debut album. As shown at their dreamy live shows and on singles like “Fringe” and "The Boredom," the result of this "pen pinspiration" is a chill, hazy, retro sound that feels like lounging by a Palm Desert pool as afternoon becomes dusk.
