Band to Watch: Surfer Blood
All I really know about Surfer Blood is that they are from Florida and I like everything I’ve heard by them so far. Oh yeah they also have a Twitter account so you should follow them. They post a lot of pictures.
Surfer Blood are a band from West Palm Beach, Florida. Mostly unheard of before the 2009 CMJ marathon, the band played 12 shows where they got serious buzz. Their forthcoming album, Astro Coast was recorded in their dorm room at the University of Florida and is due on January 19 on Kanine. (Via Last.fm)
Here are a few MP3’s to tide you over until January 19th.
MP3’s:
Surfer Blood – “Floating Vibes”
Surfer Blood – “Swim (To Reach the End)”
