Kenney has also lent vocals on multiple Toro y Moi projects, including 2017’s Boo Boo. In 2019 she released the split EP, The Sisters / Helpless in collaboration with Flock of Dimes (Wasner’s solo project).With every project Kenney pursues, she continues to shine in her ability to speak the strange, ambiguous, impossible truths — and Sucker’s Lunch is no exception.Joel Robinow—Joel Robinow is an accomplished performer, multi-instrumentalist, composer, and writer, was the frontman of Once and Future Band , and former member of Bay Area's Howlin Rain, Drunk Horse, East Bay Grease, and Total B.S.
