Coming Good

Second single ‘Passing By’ is a heady wash of sweeping guitars and wonky keys, capturing a moment of idle thought, staring out at the sea, backed by synth textures and modulating guitars.

Passing By

‘Learn to Surf’ is a new band of old friends (namely James Baldwin, Jim Coburn, Joe Reeves and Jack Titcombe) who have played with each other in various projects and combinations since their teens (Electric Furs, Stranger Stranger, Jack Joseph Band, Found Instruments).

In October ‘22 the group started meeting up to see if they could remember how to play any of their old songs and ended up writing some new ones in the process.

Debut release ‘Coming Good’ combines a near-Motorik driving rhythm and chiming guitars with longing twin vocals ruminating on what could have beens and past promises.

The band is now working on a full length album and has further releases planned for the early part of 2024.
