Biografie
Perfume Genius is the stage name for Seattle-based solo artist Mike Hadreas. His second album, Put Your Back N 2 It, was released on February 20, 2012.[2]
History
Hadreas began composing music after he moved from New York to live with his mother in Everett, Washington. In 2008, he set up a MySpace page under the name Perfume Genius.[3] His debut album, Learning, was released on 21 June 2010, through Turnstile Records in Europe and Matador Records in the United States.[4] In 2011, Mike supported the band Beirut on their North American tour.[5] In September of the same year he played Split Works' inaugural Black Rabbit festival in China alongside acts like Gold Panda and Mount Kimbie.[6] Hadreas' sophomore album, Put Your Back N 2 It, was released on February 20, 2012.[2] The promotional video for the album, featuring Hadreas and pornographic actor Arpad Miklos embracing each other wearing only underwear, was deemed unsafe for family viewing by YouTube.[7]
He was one of several Seattle-area artists and musicians featured in the exhibit "Mw [Moment Magnitude]" at the Frye Art Museum, October 13, 2012 — January 20, 2013. As part of the exhibit, he gave a performance at the museum October 27, 2012.[8]
