Don your sailing caps and dive into the deep blue depths with two heaping helpings of atmospheric dream pop with a punk bite. Surfer Blood hail from West Palm Beach, Florida and released their most recent studio album, 1000 Palms this past spring. The Lighthouse and The Whaler are from Cleveland, Ohio and released their most recent album Mont Royal in August. They both pack a punch with a potent mix of guitars, drums and vocals that is at once both sweeping and delicate. Let their soothing melodies carry you to some faraway beach and back again. Head on down to the Middle East Upstairs and check them out!
