佛罗里达另类摇滚乐团SURFER BLOOD 2016首次中国巡演

献给Thomas的夏天

“I love you Thom. Thank you for being part of my life. I’ll never meet anyone like you again & I’ll miss you everyday.”

Surfer blood 原吉他手Thomas Fekete于5.30日因罕见癌症逝世,乐队在推特主页为他写下这段话。

Surfer Blood是一支来自美国佛罗里达州西棕榈滩的独立摇滚乐队,至2016年成军7年以来,发表了3张专辑及一张EP,虽然名字听起来似乎和Surf Rock冲浪运动有关,但是四个人并没有冲过太多浪。这个名字也只是乐队成员闲聊中无意提起的,无心插柳变成了乐队的正名大号。他们的音乐表达出一种活 泼,跳跃,略显鸡血的悸动。

高中时期,主唱Pitts和鼓手Schwarz因共同的音乐兴趣一拍即合,随后在迈阿密的Ultra音乐节上,他们又认识了吉他手Fekete和贝斯手William s,四人决定合作组成一支乐队,然后不停地巡演,就这样组成了乐队。

他 们因2010年首张单曲“swim”大获好评,被评为2009年Pitchfork\’s 100 Best Songs第37名;同年发表了首张专辑《Astro Coast》,让这支年轻的独立乐队迅速窜红。并与8月受邀参加了亚洲阵容最豪华的东京Summer Sonic音乐节,2013年发行第二张全长专辑《Pythons》更Surfer Blood 的音乐更上一层楼;《Demon Dance》开头的吉他伴奏以及中间穿插的乐队齐声呐喊别出心裁;《Gravity》低潮部分出色的吉他伴奏更是让人眼前一亮,将Surfer Blood成功推上了新星的宝座。

而成军7年之后,他们也将带着第三张全长专辑《1000 Palms》正式展开属于他们的首次中国巡演,2016年7月,在这个炎热的夏天,感受来自全美最长海岸线的佛罗里达州Surfer Blood的独立音乐之旅,带你冲入到洒满阳光的棕榈海滩尽情嬉戏。 […]
