Lose yourself Outer Surface's dreamy bedroom pop. Surrender to soul-soothing vocals, catchy choruses, and vibey instrument interplay. "Missing Spaces" weaves layered synths, electric piano, guitars, and psychedelic nuances, forging a groovy backdrop for an earnest ballad about our search for meaning. Lyrics penned by poet J. Blake Gordon (Kosaya Gora collaborator), infuse the composition with an added layer of depth.

Missing Spaces

This dreamy, neo-psych-pop version of a Brian Wilson classic is fueled by an earnest lead vocal and vintage synths in place of singing brothers. Envelop yourself in a blanket of spacey vibes and tingles of nostalgia with this smooth track. Outer Surface is a master of mellow.

Don't Worry Baby

Step into an immersive soundscape of synths, guitars (acoustic and electric), and vocoders that rejuvenates an unmistakable 70/80s pop vibe with a modern, experimental flair. “Let It Out” evokes nostalgic feelings of ELO, Bowie, or early 2000s Flaming Lips pop psychedelia. With intimate lyrics that reflect the struggle between the desire for self-expression and anxious uncertainty, Outer Surface delivers another dose of chill, vibey, indie dream pop.

Let It Out

Outer Surface returns with a haunting rendition of an early Eurythmics classic. A melancholy baritone emotes the lyrics’ longing with gothic elegance over an atmospheric soundscape driven by rich layers of synthesizers, tremolo guitar, and live bass and drums. The result is a seductive blend of New Wave aesthetics and Outer Surface’s signature dream pop psychedelia.

Love Is A Stranger

Dive into the dreamy depths and haunting beauty of "Table Still Unset.” Uniting with iconic producer Chris Coady (Beach House, Grizzly Bear, Slowdive) as Mix Consultant, Outer Surface flaunts a symphony of echoing guitars, synths, and strings–headphone medicine that’s crowned by a warm, yearning baritone embracing unfulfilled dreams and highs of hope. Modern dream pop infused with Eno/Bowie vibes for a sound nostalgic and novel.
