Pearl & The Oysters

Musical collaborators and life partners Juliette Pearl Davis and Joachim Polack are Pearl & The Oysters. Their Stones Throw debut Coast 2 Coast, an album that documents their move from Florida to L.A., was released April 21^st, 2023.

Juliette (Pearl) and Joachim (The Oysters) met at high school in Paris and formed an immediate bond through their mutual love of music and pop culture, spanning everything from ‘70s jazz to ‘90s space age pop. Their eclectic tastes followed them through a move across the Atlantic to Gainesville, Florida in 2015 where they tapped into the local DIY scene, and then to Los Angeles In 2020. But wherever the couple traveled, they found a sense of home in one another.

For Coast 2 Coast, Juliette and Joachim brought on a host of collaborators – Lætitia Sadier (Stereolab), Riley Geare (Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Caroline Rose, La Luz), Alan Palomo (Neon Indian), Dent May, and Mild High Club’s Alex Brettin. Having sat in on her jazz musician father’s rehearsals as a kid, now Juliette invited him to play vibraphone on the album.
