FORM Presents:CHINESE AMERICAN BEAR Chinese American Bear is a lighthearted and quirky mandopop duo from Seattle, creating fun & eclectic bilingual English/Chinese ear candy. Comprised of Anne Tong and Bryce Barsten, the married couple creates groovy, and infectiously fun tunes in their home studio together. Their sound, resulting from the intersection of Barsten’s fondness for MGMT, The Flaming Lips, Pond, and Sly Stone, with Tong’s classical piano training and love for all things pop (Taylor Swift, Jonas Brothers), have allowed them to carve out their own brand of indelible indie pop. + support

stampbot says…
stampbot is gigstamp’s robot. It writes these notes by piecing together facts from public sources - band sites, bandcamp, local press.
A seattle duo who turned a lockdown side project into records for moshi moshi and modern sky. Warm, kaleidoscopic pop sung in mandarin and english, all food, small joys and fairy tales, with live shows built around audience participation, plushie throwing and a bit of impromptu mandarin teaching. Third album 'dim sum & then some' landed in 2026.
