Surfer Blood Runs Red at the Biltmore April 5th
Artist: Surfer Blood
Venue: Biltmore Cabaret
Date: April 5th, 2010
Hard to explain Surfer Blood, kind of like the Shins meets Weezer. A little mainstream sounding, but manage to get their hooks into you. These guys are not surfers by any means and the band actually denounces the “surfer” kids that made their high school experience miserable. The band recorded their first album (Astro Coast) in their dorm room during freshman year with equipment purchased with scholarship money. Well its better than what I did with my student loan money… JP Pitts is apparently the “mastermind” of the band recruiting the other members to polish up a couple songs he had been working on. Next thing you know… Surfer Blood is born. Take a listen for yourself.
