Inspired by 80s new wave, 60s psychedelia, and of course, their own Latin roots, Twin Seas creates a fresh soundscape that leads the listener on a voyage of warm tones and sun-kissed melodies.<\/p>\n<p>After forming in 2016, Twin Seas have made a name for themselves in the LA indie rock scene, playing to excited\u00a0and loyal audiences all over the SoCal area. The crowd can&#8217;t help but dance when the band breaks into favourites such as\u00a0<em>Surf Wave<\/em>, <em>Machine Gun<\/em>, and <em>Alpha Pup<\/em>.\u00a0In a short time, the band has perfected the art of live performance. Take a listen to\u00a0<em>Alpha Pup <\/em>via Soundcloud below.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/320559814&amp;color=7c7a7a&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Twin Seas completed their self-titled record earlier this year at their home studio at La Mina, in the neighborhood of City Terrace. For this debut, they recruited the help of vocalist\u00a0Chrisol\u00a0and the rhythm section from\u00a0Chicano Batman\u00a0who are both featured on the record. The band&#8217;s distinct sound, dubbed &#8220;New Wave-Dream Pop&#8221;, is sure to provide the quintessential soundtrack for a summer day.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/bc31868377c214862493bdd83\/images\/d0f9a1bc-52de-428d-b1bc-f757256dfdad.jpg?resize=501%2C448&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"501\" height=\"448\" \/><strong>Track listing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.
