​Plasticstatic is Keisha and Ryan T. Winn.  They are an electronic and textural guitar band influenced by 'pataphysics, surrealism, Belle-Epoque art and absinthe history, dark wave, shoegaze, and post-punk.  

Plasticstatic was started by Ryan in 1997.  After many years and small releases, it evolved into its current form when Keisha joined in 2012.  The Anchors EP was released that year on the 26th anniversary of the passing of Brion Gysin.  It features the song "Flickering", which was inspired by Gysin's art and life.  The EP was expanded with a bonus track, and released on cassette later that year by A Thousand Steps Records.

Retreat was released on September 4, 2014 as a 12-track free download and an art edition 26-track double album with bonus DVD.  This album was a culmination of all the sounds into which Plasticstatic had delved over the years prior, while providing a leaping-off point into newer, experimental areas.

Also released in 2014 was a collaboration with Sana Obruent, titled Sonitus De Cooperatione, and a remix of the Golden Gardens track "I'll Burn Alone", which was included on their limited edition Bellflower DVD.

At the start of 2016, a cover of Echo and the Bunnymen's "The Disease" was released as a part of ​Gods Will Be Gods: A Reverence to the Bunnymen, a compilation put out by The Blog That Celebrates Itself Records.  On August 1 of that year, a cover of The Cure's "The Big Hand" was released as a part of The Cure In Other Voices compilation by the same label.  On May 9, 2017, their cover of The Sound's "I Can't Escape Myself" was released as the opening track on New Dark Age, A Tribute to The Sound.

Their new material has moved deeper into electronic territory, with guitars playing a supporting role.  The first fruits of these sessions were released as Both Sides of the Moon​ on November 6, 2016.  The newest album, Some Strange Alchemy, which includes the bonus companion album Songs From Thee Static Lodge, was released August 21, 2017.

In 2018, Plasticstatic joined the roster at Backmask Records for distribution of their digital media.  A special version of Retreat was created to mark this occasion, sequenced differently from the previously available version.  A cover of Love And Rockets' "Judgement Day" was released by TBTCI Records on their tribute compilation Welcome Tomorrow, Love And Rockets In Another View.  On March 20, 2019, two new songs were released.  One, a cover of Psychic TV's "Just Like Arcadia", is a part of the Wolfpack23 Vol. 2 compilation with all proceeds going to Genesis Breyer P-Orridge's medical bills from their fight against leukemia.  The other song is an original recording called "Remain", which is part of TBTCI Records' compilation Out of the Darkness, which was created to raise awareness of resources for anyone suffering from depression or thoughts of suicide.

On November 13th 2019, the 15th anniversary of the death of Coil's Jhonn Balance, a cover of "Amber Rain" was released along with a 23-minute B-side recorded using all analog instruments and effects directly to 4-track tape.

Plasticstatic is currently working on the follow-up to Some Strange Alchemy.
