History


The band's debut EP, Blooming Summer, was released in 2010 on Arbutus,[6] a cooperative label set up to promote members of a music and artistic community in Montreal's Mile End neighbourhood. The two musicians performed in Montreal, at times with other members of the collective.[7]

The pair released their first studio album, Untogether in 2013,[8] and then went out on tour.[9] The album chronicled the end of the pair's romantic relationship, and the group ended after the release, with Ra concentrating on Braids and Agor focusing on DJing.[10]

In 2014, Agor reworked some of their existing tracks and released a mixtape, Agor Edits.[11]

The group reunited in 2016 in Los Angeles,[12] and a single, No One Like You, was released in 2017.[13] That same year, Blue Hawaii released their second album, Tenderness.[14][15]

In 2018, the pair performed at the Ypsigrock festival in Sicily.[16]

Their third studio album, Open Reduction Internal Fixation, was released on October 11, 2019.[17]
