cristobal and the sea
简介
The quartet hail from four corners of our diverse continent. They are: Alejandro Romero from Spain (bass/vox), Joo Seixas from Portugal (guitar/vox), Lela Séguin from Corsica/France (flute/vox) and Josh Oldershaw from old Blighty (drums). Within this melting pot of dreamy tropicalia there are notes of their southern Mediterranean culture and an unintentionally Brazilian bossa nova feel in Joo’s guitar style, all underpinned by a beat-generation vibe that seeps into all their songs. All perfectly captured on this debut by New York producer, Rusty Santos from The Present (Animal Collective, Owen Pallet, DJ Rashad, Panda Bear). From The Beach Boys’ vocal harmonies to Fleetwood Mac (if they’d have favoured LSD over their beloved cocaine), Gilberto Gil to Gainsbourg and a whole host of modern artists, Cristobal & The Sea have taken their varied inspirations and diverse cultural backgrounds & melded them into their own distinct sound, creating rich, warm & disorientating songs that swirl with psychedelia, but never forget the importance of melody. Ale, Joo & Lela all met at Loughborough University whilst studying architecture, philosophy and international studies respectively. Occasional jamming quickly turned into writing songs and before long they turned one of their two halls of residence rooms into a music studio and spent every free hour jamming, writing, recording (with the cheapest, most readily available equipment, resorting to a 7 Skype microphone for vocals), and developing their very unique style and sound. When they set up house in London at the end of 2013 they met like-minded drummer Josh through a mutual friend and the band was complete. Fresh out of the studio with producer, Rusty Santos this July, their debut EP ‘Peach Bells EP’ will be released on a one-sided vinyl 12“ in early December. Recorded over the course of a week in London’s Strongroom Studios, most of the instrumentation was captured in just one or two live takes to preserve the spontaneity & unaffected air that makes their music so rousing & individual. Young, enormously gifted, beautifully boho, very charismatic and incredibly laid back, Cristobal And The Sea are devouring life as only the young and carefree know how.
