Chaz Bear (born Chazwick Bradley Bundick; November 7, 1986), known professionally as Toro y Moi, is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, and graphic designer. He is regarded as a pioneer of the chillwave genre that emerged in the late 2000s and early 2010s, alongside artists such as Washed Out and Neon Indian, though his music has since incorporated a wide range of styles. His stage name is a multilingual phrase combining the Spanish words "toro y" ("bull and") and the French word moi ("me").
