Buttonhead has been played on NTS in shows including Rap Vacation, featured first on 14 March 2025. Songs played include Champion Bread.

Buttonhead, a rampaging rainbow of noise-pop with a penchant for polymesmeric song structures and fractured melodies, is a multi-headed beast with one shivering b’glittered body; comprising Ross Blake, Tobias Warwick Jones, Valentina Magaletti, Eloise Goulder and Daniel John Boyle.

The group’s wildly disparate influences of tropicalia, avant pop, spacious psyche, experimental rock, ye-ye and anthemic film music were decisively distilled into their debut album ‘3D Opera Whale’, which was released on Horse Arm in 2012.

Buttonhead’s musicians have enjoyed other distinct and absorbing musical travails within a thicket of variable renown. Skin-jabbing Magaletti has in the past moonlighted in various bands such Bat For Lashes, Shit & Shine, Raime and The Oscillation, and is now in Vanishing Twin and Tomaga. Boyle once contributed to the ‘kaleidoscopic claustrophonics’ of Gentle Friendly whilst lending his multi-instrumental skills to Banjo or Freakout. Meanwhile Blake thrumps at first bass in the Noise Rock trio Poino.
