San Diego based band TRANSFER will release their debut album, Future Selves on October 11th via Cool Green Recordings. Within a short period of time, the band has been earning high praise on both sides of the Atlantic; including picking up two awards at last month’s San Diego Music Awards. Since finishing the recording of Future Selves, the four-piece has supported The Killers and White Lies, and toured the UK with standout festival shows in Hard Rock Calling at Hyde Park, Hop Farm and T In The Park. Amidst this, they recorded their UK TV debut for Live From Abbey Road, in the process picking up just about the greatest fan any new band could dream of when none other than Sir Paul McCartney popped by to say hello.
Future Selves is both expansive and ambitious: psychedelic riffs burn with a poppy energy on “Losing Composure” and “Like It Used To Be”; Brian Wilson-style harmonies arrive swathed in chiming guitars and pianos on “Take Your Medicine” and the soulful “Get Some Rest”; the band even experiment with soaring prog rock on “Enojado”. Future Selves’ over-arching mood is of an epic album brimming with festival anthems and hefty rock riffola.
TRANSFER are: Jason Cardenas (guitar, vocals), Matthew Molarius (vocals, guitar), Shaun Cornell (bass), Andy Ridley (drums)
