Wrapping up the school year

Hey loyal people of the sea

Finishing out the year, we got a bunch of new tracks for you to play at a bunch of shows. If you're a Stanford student, come see us at theta delt this friday for a party hearty show, saturday opening for Pinot at synergy, or at senior formal in the city. And definitely come by that Yeasayer gig on Monday for our most official awesomeness.

For you off-campus types, we're looking at June 9th down in San Jose with Le Verita for free. They play some awesome awesome downtempo stuff, should be a great time for all.

If you wanna see us and you can't any of these times, let us know! We'll look into adding some gigs in your area and such.

Oh and get excited for new tracks. They kick major ass.

Following the release of our EP (check it out in that right sidebar), we've been playing a lot of shows to get the word out.

Check out the organization's site at bayareacan.com and the facebook event to get some more details. The short version: us against 6 other college bands for a chance to open for someone big (ie Dave Matthews) at Shoreline this summer!

recording, upcoming shows

Hey all,

So we spent 14 hours in the studio last night recording and mixing for our upcoming Loki EP, which will include 5 or 6 of our originals. The track list is up in the air for now, we still have tons of work to do on the recordings, but we basically finished mastering All the Boys and Girls, you can listen to it on any of our websites, and download the mp3 for free at seapeople.bandcamp.com.

Over the next few weeks we'll be releasing tracks from the Loki EP online as we finish polishing them, and we'll release the actual EP in the spring, complete with artwork by our good friend and great artist Katie Chabolla. We're also customizing some t-shirts with her artwork, we'll start selling them in the spring along with the cd.

We've got a few shows coming up too. This Wednesday, February 24th we are going to be playing a short acoustic set at Sigma Nu's Winter SNAPS around 9 PM or so. On Sat. Feb 27th we'll be playing an hour and fifteen minute set at the Stanford CoHo at 8 PM. We've got a few new songs, don't miss em.
