Introducing Rest For The Wicked, a brand new project from Melbourne artist Ben Townsend and Sydney based multi-skilled producer Tasker. Unhinged. Colourful. Wondrous. The result is a set of hazy, raw genre-less pop songs. Loose and sweet on the surface with a melodic, dark heart.

Ben Townsend has built a cult following through tours with Wu-Tang Clan, Ice Cube, Azealia Banks, and Peking Duk, as well as his own sold out shows throughout Australia. He garnered a devoted audience for his infamous live show that would include everything from backflips, freestyles, and stage dives, and for developing real connections with his fans via social media.

Tasker is a prolific songwriter and producer with cuts for artists across a variety of genres including G Flip, Alison Wonderland, and Tia Gostelow, plus official remixes for Hayden James, and DMA's.With his various roles in a number of touring projects he has supported 5SOS, Sticky Fingers, Wavves, and more.
