Artless Pursuit The Artless Pursuit of Excellence is a husband-and-wife art-pop duo from Brisbane, Australia. They are an unusual pairing of skills, consisting of Helen Carrington, a music therapist and classically trained soprano, and Chris Perren, a PhD student in music composition and member of Mr. Maps and Brisbane's lofly records collective. Their recordings combine a nerdy love for the musically cerebral with the sonic immediacy of the pop song format, drawing inspiration from artists such as James Blake and Alpine. They plan to release a single on the Seventh of every month from March 2013, until they run out of energy or songs.
