The original idea of Pond was to be able to get anyone they wanted to play whatever they wanted in a collaborative musical project.

Their second album, Corridors of Blissterday, was completed live with an eight piece band in five days, and released in June 2009.

After the breakthrough success of Innerspeaker, the debut album by Tame Impala, a band which shares three members with Pond, the album Beard, Wives, Denim was recorded in 2010 and later released to critical acclaim in March 2012.
