Chicago post-punk trio Plum make jagged, danceable music built around Jeff Kelley's angular guitar and off-kilter structures, Heather Perry's melodic, driving bass, and Eric Ridder's funk-rooted grooves.
Their second album, Bodies in Motion, was self-released on August 20, 2026. Pitchfork scored it 7.8 and called it “a raging, uncontrollable dance party.” First single “Asymmetric” was featured on Pitchfork Selects. The band's 2024 debut, Can't Hold On To It, featuring original drummer Karissa Talanian, drew from New Wave, No Wave, and Krautrock.
Plum has shared stages with Jack White, Acid Mothers Temple, Brainiac, Keiji Haino, Trupa Trupa, La Sécurité, and TsuShiMaMiRe. In December 2023, they completed a ten-date tour of Japan.
