Tiger Waves - "Weekends"

Baby Blue Motorcycle

Alejandro Rose-Garcia, better known as Shakey Graves, still brings his Samsonite luggage on the road with him as an instrument, but his shows are no longer just a one-man band experience. This new sound is obvious in his Studio Z performance, but Rose-Garcia made sure to note that his shows now are an equal mix of his trio and his Samsonite companion. His latest album, And The War Came, is in stores now!

Ember Oceans has created the next hit sound with an original take on the indie synth-rock genre, seeing themselves and what makes a catchy pop tune through a new perspective. Their self-titled debut EP takes their warm electric groove for one hell of a joy ride that feels great the whole way through. Stop at the beach and surf through the rich harmonies and waves of reverb soaked synthesizer and guitar, popping like bubbles along to the crisp beats and bass that drive the songs on a roadtrip that travels through summers of influence and sound. Ember Oceans does not want you to just listen to their music, they want you to take it on vacation and have the best trip you've had in years.

Breaking Ties

Just when you think you’ve got it figured out, it starts rearranging.
The left is right, and right is left, the middle disappears.
Up is down and down is up, and everything starts changing.
Tearing down what you built over the years.
You built it high, it fell down low, & then it fell completely off.
It didn’t stop, it didn’t go, it didn’t run, it wouldn’t quit.
It moves forward just a step or two, then sputters, stalls and coughs,
And then won’t move a bit!
Can’t understand the way things are, and I’ll never remember the past.
Never refuse to slow it all down, but I’ve gotten so used to the fast.
I’ll always confuse what the difference is, and how I can make it all last
But that’s okay, my love, it’s all a dream.
INSTRUMENTAL
I sometimes think I’ve got it figured out, but then I realize.
I never truly knew what it’s about, I made it up.
So, if I claim to know my way around, try not to be surprised.
I’ve run out of luck.
Can’t understand the way things are, and I’ll never remember the past.
Never refuse to slow it all down, but I’ve gotten so used to the fast.
I’ll always confuse what the difference is, and how I can make it all last
But that’s okay, my love, it’s all a dream.


It’s All a Dream
