Psychedelic surf-rock comes to Brooklyn and finds itself fitting right in with Bodega Bay, a band who made our recent list of Best Emerging NYC Artists at #88. With only a few singles recorded, the quartet already has a slew of shows under its belt, and looks forward to a potentially bright future as a standout lo-fi sound in this music Mecca. The recordings are raw and honest – we like that – barebones drum parts with clean and hazy guitar flowing over them and droning, with sometimes intensely monotone vocals cutting through it all. The band doesn’t seem to have mastered the art of posting songs on Bandcamp or Soundcloud (or maybe they are just not interested), but they do have a few songs streaming on Youtube, here’s a good one. – JP Basileo
P.S. By the way, FYI Youtube is owned by Google while Soundcloud and Bandcamp (as far as we know) are smaller independent entities, so… there’s no excuse not to use them.
