Present-Tense here giving daver a bit of a break. He’s currently wrapping his sharpies in protective coating (CENSORED) to prepare for April’s festivities. I’m helping daver to dig deep into the 2014 Coachella Music Festival lineup, featuring one band per day. The purpose of this piece is to assist in difficult decisions that inevitably you’ll need to make, as well as, serve as a fun countdown to Coachella Week. Note: All bands appear in a completely random order… Enjoy, and let the countdown continue.
Surfer Blood are an alt-rock quartet representing West Palm Beach, Florida. While you may think their band name is stupid, their first stab wasn’t much better (Jabroni Sandwich). At least the Surfer Blood name is probably better at selling more t-shirts. Surfer Blood play some catchy surf inspired alt rock which would have felt right at home on your FM radio dial back in the 90’s when KROQ and the like would actually play some decent music and break some decent bands. I think Surfer Blood would have been bigger than Marcy Playground back in the day.
