TR/ST (fka Trust) is the musical alias of producer, singer, and performer Robert Alfons. Born in Winnipeg, Canada (but based in Los Angeles for the past decade), he has released a string of celebrated albums fusing swooning synth-pop, confessional darkwave, and anthemic emotion: TRST (2012), Joyland (2014), The Destroyer – Part One (2019), and The Destroyer – Part Two (2019).
In late 2023, TR/ST joined Dais Records, announcing the union with the release of TR/ST EP earlier this year. Today he shares his new single “Soon”, with a new album in the works. TR/ST has also announced a European/UK tour later this year. “Soon” is a dance floor stomper with a huge new wave hook, swelling to life with hymnal electronics and spiked with caustic kiss-off lyrics.
