Florida's Surfer Blood have been getting a fair bit of praise around these parts, and in other sections of the indie music press and online type websites as well. They have the sort of name that only American bands can get away with. They also have the sort of sound that only American bands can get away with. The band were also recently confirmed to play ATP, so they must be doing something right. Right?!
Well, we don't have an interview with them but Dirty Laundry do, something which you can watch below. They talk about various things to a woman named Malia. Like Pitchfork. And ummm...equipment being nicked. Watch it below:
