Based out of Denver, Colorado and already gaining an international fanbase, including the likes of Ulrich Schnauss, a shoreline dream is a concept driven band taking the Do-It-Yourself approach full force, setting up the label on their own (latenight weeknight records) and handling distro internally. Best described as a band bridging the gap between post-rock and shoegaze with their ambient landscapes, vocals chanting through a radio at the bottom of a well, and one-take room recordings. The band has received many mentions based on their unique ability to draw people into a trance with landscapes of sound while retaining a strong melodic and unique vocal delivery.
